Wind forecast was already a few days super: WNW 20 to 30 knots. There was rain predicts, but who remained happy just on the other side of the water, thus outside of a single bit of drizzle, we held it dry.

Dangers and problems really until I could no longer was able to hold on any longer, gybjes my boom went awry: very satisfied stopped. You have from those days: SUPER! [Read...]

Yesterday Amy Winehouse died. I think everyone saw this coming, she at the age of 27 years.
If she has stretched until they are 27 or that it was pure coincidence is we'll never know. 27 is the age for an artist to die. Many artists went for her. But the most famous are known as the Club of 27.
Amy was good, but if they are, with only 2 hits and 1 famous album to this list would be allowed to join? I do not, therefore, these 5 a much larger influence on the music than Amy. [Read...]

There was quite the day strong winds predicted, no chance to take a day off, so then but after work go surfing. Prediction was SW and diminishing. Chosen for the Kabbelaarsbank, there is always someone and would also still longer blow than on Herkingen. I wouldn't have much time, so just wanted to in full sail, nice moment to have for an hour record. All the other times I had coincidentally an hour record. It was quiet on the water, life, flatter water, fewer people in the way. [Read...]

Warm weather in the beginning but no wind, wind but also a lot of rain later. For different reasons wanted some to the Oister dam, since no bad swim is took me, wind direction was well predicted. Because it is not a first time blew on the side are chatting, Martijn and Jeroen were busy with Smartphones looking for a website that does wind predicted. There was wind predicted, but anywhere from an hour or 12 a 2. Eventually started hans 8.0 to rig. But that seemed Jeroen then again too much and hans again lambaste.

The day for a regiocup is always WWT (Windsurfing Contest Trainning) so also today. Weather forecast was very good (especially if they are the real contest on the day of no wind) Level was very high.

But what a doom:-broken baseplate, be happy in shallow-42 cm tear in my crash with GT85 by vin in the shallow. [Read...]
