Windsurfing in the cold
Session 2The first session was rather fast, I always have this feeling the first session. What normally feels 30kn now feels like 40kn. Was quite heavy session, gusty extreme cold water. And this extreme cold water plus my “survival at sea-diploma” conflict a little bit.
Basicly the bottleneck was to rebalance a little bit safe musclepower. The second day same story on the Amstelmeer (with very little ice near Lutje), however the sun was very helpfull, at one point too hot in my new spartan wetsuit 🙂
Maybe there is global warming after all, hahaha. Watertemp 2 degrees air between 5-8 degrees celsius last days.
