We're back from a few days in Cornwall and my first kite session in ages. This wasn't a proper holiday as Nic has had an operation on her shoulder and it was in Exeter. So after a few days there (of me rocking it up in a nice hotel - St.Andrews - Exeter - which by-the by was good value and very nice) we decided to head to our friends in Cornwall. It was closer then going all the way home and nicer! :) Nic mostly slept and I mostly worked.
What a wally! I forgot to take my camera and we spent one night from about 9 til midnight, just sat in Gwithian car park watching the sun go down - it was stunning - as always.
I managed a couple of sessions in the sea. I can't remember what days, but the first session was pumping! Too big for me ;) I stuck at it though with my shorter board and although I was getting tired from the constant bashings, I managed to get some nice waves.
The second and third sessions were back on the log again. I've got to be honest, I always like to think I like the shorter board, but my heart is with the plank. Got a few sweet ones and I was happy.
I used my summer suit for the first time this year - all good! No boots and gloves and the feeling of being almost nude - hehehe! It's such a difference. I dropped of my winter suit off with Adam at Overhead in Newquay (sorry - Newquoi!) to be fixed - the damned thing is falling to bits :( Maybe line a new one up next summer...
We should be heading back down to Exeter again in 5 to 6 weeks for a follow-up for Nic. Fingers crossed we can land it near a weekend to get another sneaky one in ;)
