my rating 4 star rating
Wind Direction: N Wind Strength: glassy Swell Direction: Swell Size: nonexistent Tide: Mid - Falling.

Another late session. Cranked straight off the beach, seeing how far I could get in 20 minutes before returning to the beach. Got my best peak speed ever on the GPS . . 14 kph with no wind assist. Has anyone beat that?

I think it had to do with my position on the board and definitely faster with long power strokes rather than short quick ones.

Water was super glassy even glassier than last night and the sunset was pretty epic especially when combined with the moon rising over the Eastbourne hills.

4 thumbs up!
