Epic, short and very rare: the final sequence

Back to Nick Warmuth on that Wednesday august 12.

I really love the background in these photos (click on at least one to appreciate it). And I must not be the only one, since Windsurfing magazine is evaluating to buy the fourth one (which I'm not publishing here). I really hope they do buy it, I can't wait to see it there.
Talking about windsurfing magazines, here's a brand new online and free one.







In the meantime, the wind started blowing again and Hookipa yesterday was a hell lot of fun. Perfect 4.7 wind and head high walls to hit right in front of the rocks.
I had a surf session at 6.30am on an east facing beach (horrible, the waves were too big and disorganized), then I had a first two hours windsurf session at noon and it was just five of us for an hour or so before everyone else arrived and then again another sailing session at 5pm till like 6.15 with light wind and glassy waves.

I can certainly say that I made the most of a day off... and I slept like a baby at night!
The windswell is steady at 6 feet 9 seconds and it should stay like that for a few more days, maybe even a foot bigger on Friday.
So shall the fun continue!

PS. This is a really, really good article about how humans fucked up the world (there's even an italian translation).
