Premier windsurfing 2016.

On Easter monday (28 march) i did my windsurfing premier for 2016 in Torkelstorp.
Wind from SE/S, started with 8 m/s and i sailed with RRD X-Fire V7 98 litre and NS Warp F2016 7,7 m2.
Later on the wind picked up and i went down to Warp F2013 7.0

Sunny and warm.
No real speed the first day and i had to consider my RH knee as well.
But good to started up.

Torkelstorp 14 november 2015.

Saterday, gusty wind from west. Very high water level (+0,8 m).
That made it quit bumpy.
+8 degrees air temp. Was cold on the hands/fingers in the beginning.
No real speed event due to the conditions but nice to sail.

Juli surf i Torkelstorp.

26 of july was a great day with lots of wind in T-torp.
Gusty winds from west.  Wind increased from afternoon and onwards, >13 m/s.
Someone sad that the gust was up to 19 m/s.

Since the water level, was high, there was a choppy conditions.

I had no success in the chopp but Daniel B and Johan G did nice runs and scored good 5 x 10 s average.
Daniel did 39 kts (max top) in this conditions !!

 

2015 start

On saterday 17 januari i did the first session for 2015.
Wind from SW 9-11 m/s.
It was cold, only +3 degree air temp and the same in the water.
HIgh water level means some choppy conditions.
Was cold for the hands. Made it difficult to speed with control.

Started with sp63 + 7,8 m2.

Since i had problem to keep the controll due to cramp in left under arm and cold fingers i changed later on to sp53 + 7.0 m2 (realy on the border, to small).

Average 29,3 kn (5x10 s).

Lucia surf 2014.

Lucia surf on 13 december 2014 in Torkelstorp.

High water level means choppy water conditions, not perfect for speed surfing.

Wind from west, 9-13 m/s.

I picked CA sp53 and NS Warp 6,3 m2.

Ove and later on M.Lamm joined aswell.

We sailed up in the Tjolöholms viken were the water was less choppy.

No speed results from me though, due to the chopp.
Average speed 5x10 s, 30,8 kn.

Even if it was choppy it was good and nice to surf.

SVF Speed cup 2014

27-28 september was the last speed event in the swedish cup 2014.
It was held in my home spot, Torkelstorp.
Saterday had sunny weather and wind from W, gusty winds, from 8-12 m/s.
We did 2 heat (2+2 hr).

On sunday the wind was much weaker and dropping, SW.
We did only one heat.

Totaly i ended on 7:th place (out of 24 sailers) and in the 2014 SVF cup on 8:th place.

I sailded on CA 63 and Warp F2014 7,8 m2 on saterday and Warp F2012 8,6 m2 on sunday.
No high Speeds, i think i did only 32 kn.

Februari sailing

Early spring or wind from south made it possible to windsurf in februari.

Weekend 22-23 februari i saild both days in Torkelstorp (home spot).
We had wind from south 10-12 m/s. Air temp 4-5 degree.

I saild on CA sp53 and NS Warp 7,0 m2.

Some choppy water made it not so easy to speed, but still quit ok.
