Today Jarmo showed me Hanko's Silverstrand ... what a joy it was - in my short windsurfing career this was close to dream come true. "Halssi" was endless. Nice slighty bursty winds. "Faster than ever" moments. I even managed to jump first time ever :o)
Great place - gotta go back with Jarmo and Simo!
A bit frigthening that I seem to only understand when I'm about to loose all my strenghs when I fall and try to get the sail up again. In Pihtipudas I was lucky it was home beach - now I was in the middle of fairly bigish swells and swimming, then trying to get the sail up and realizing I'm not sure if I can due to totally finished hands. Well, I got it finally and the board back to beach. More self awareness required.
Oh, on Saturday I went to Melsten beach for the first time too. Great fun.... until I came to beach for some water and tuning. When heading back I was welcomed with not too loud snap - lost the fin. End of fun.
Luckily Matti from outdoorpoint.com was in Hanko and kind enough to help me - got a brand new one :o)
Random thoughts and things which would be nice to remember ... documented mainly for myself
