Session 445. Dark, chilly and windy morning at Seaford. I started with my Wave 6m kite in case the wind got stronger. I was able to stay upwind for a couple of tacks but was a bit underpowered. The wind dropped further so I landed the kite and setup my Union 8m which was the right kite for the conditions.
Good waves and some nice winter sunshine. I used my drysuit which was a bit too warm until a bit of water leaked in through the chest zip - I noticed later that I hadn't closed it properly. The dry suit is a bit like being inside a car - it really does separate you from the element. A wetsuit has a better feel and their is basically no chance of operator error with zips etc.
Every winter kitesurfing session is a bonus, its great to get out.
Coffee at the Beach Cafe Seaford (looking down the pier and across the bay) afterwards was excellent too.
