Unchartered waters

We've had some good kiting recently but the wind has been pretty dire for windsurfing. Myself, Simon Marshall, Jason and Stevie Smith managed a Perell sesh last week. It was good to get out on the wave board and be powered on a 5.3 even if there was no swell to write home about.
The high pressure has dropped south a little, pushing the odd slack low pressure through giving us some moderate winds which have been ideal for the big kites.
Vazon and Ladies Bay have been the best beaches to kite but on Sunday the wind was blowing NNW which gave me the first opportunity to kitesurf my local surf beach - Portinfer Bay.
The wind probably had a bit too much North in it but it was a good first session anyway.
A quick phone call to Dan and we were rigged and out for about a 30 minutes before the wind dropped and we had to come in. It's only possible to kite on the high tide and the wind was blowing across a reef upwind creating a smooth ride inside the bay. Considering the wind was slightly offshore it was also incredibly steady. Now we know it's possible to kite this bay we're looking forward to the next session with the wind a little bit more from the west with NW probably being the best direction-definitely some potential in this picturesque little bay.

Unfortunately Dimi arrived down the beach when the wind had dropped but managed to get the first couple of shots from the balcony of the house.
