Sunday was a fun day at the Lewes Main beach. Well powered 5.3 conditions. Not the 30-40 we were hoping for, but still fun, and great to get the first sesh of 2011 in, especially w/o any shoulder injuries like my first sesh of 2010.
Air temp was 27 degrees, water temp 32, but perfect sunny skies and my Mystic Force dry suit made the sesh easier than I expected.
With the Mystic Force suit, you can wear sweats underneath. I was wearing my Addidas gym pants, along with a turtle neck and hoodie. This shot is actualy AFTER my sesh when I was derigging. Completely dry.
I rode the RRD Wave Cult 90 ltr, felt like I might need the extra volume.
Great to meet and get to know Jake Agoos today. Nice work out there today.
I rigged a 5.3, but easily could have been on a 4.7.
We had about 6 inches of snow on saturday, although most of it had blown away
Good to sail with a buddy in extreme conditions
I tried to keep it close to the vest today
Pretty dead on high tide while we where out so the sand bar wasn't really breaking
Wait to sail this spot at lo tide Jake.
