Thursday 7th December

Overcoombe, Weymouth. 4.2 and waveboard - ridiculously overpowered, gusting over 50 knots. Took about 2 hours 20 minutes to drive there, so its doable for a day trip. If it had been a nice F6 this would have been a great day, Overcombe has long lines of fun sized waves with good shape and the wind is nicely sideshore. There is a nice cafe with no hangup about wetsuits and a shop with spare UJs etc. Its all very convenient.

But the wind was gusting F9, and only a few guys were sailing well. They guy in the picture is Steve Thorp who was totally ripping the place up, more aeriels than the rest of us did bottom turns - put together!
