15 September 2025: Heavy summer storm
dinsdag 16 september 2025
Bad weather predicted for Monday: heavy storm with heavy showers. In the morning it turned out to be dry and even blue skys. Wind expected up to 42 knots. So a chance for a nice day. Sailed with the Banzai 3.7 on the Custom Thruster 81 and K4 Scorcher 20/10cm. Pfff, wind was very strong, in the beginning really no control. Sailed until I was really empty and arms hurt. Wind was on the edge, it was just possible to sail in. Sometimes just too much, half the time fun sailing. It was clear blue sky almost all the time, not cold at all. And with 8 surfers, also very quiet. [Read...]

08 June 2025: Perfect surfing weather, too bad we have seaweed
dinsdag 10 juni 2025
Forecast looked perfect for the Grevelingendam: WNW and 20 knots of wind with little rain. Sailed the Banazai 5.3 and 4.7 on the Goya One 95. There were a lot of nice waves. But unfortunately there was also quite a bit of seaweed. I had 3 catapults. Wind was great, stable and perfect direction for the Grevelingendam. Sun even came through every now and then, no rain. Unfortunately, there is quite a bit of seaweed, especially in the shallower water. Time to buy a few weed fins? [Read...]
