Winter Kitesurfing

This autumn and winter has been a good one for watersports. After a long hot summer with very little in the way of wind and waves, we have now had endless storms and relatively warm temperatures. I have been on the water almost every weekend for the last couple of months now either kitting or surfing.

Today I was down in Porthcawl and the strong winds and big waves from the forecast were nowhere to be seen. It was sunny and there was some breeze and waves though so it was a good opportunity to test the new Ozone Alpha 12m. The kite was impressive.

After an hour the wind started to drop so I swapped kite gear for a sup. Going for a paddle is the kind of exercise you need after a week in the office.

Thanks to Marcus for the photos.
