Windsurfing (Eguchi Beach, Kagoshima, Japan, 23.11.2017)

Hello, RPV.
On November 23, I went to Eguchi Beach in Higashiichiri-cho, Hioki City, Kagoshima Prefecture, for the first time in two years.
Image checked on the way.Around 9:00 a.m.Located in the south of Akune CityThis is a beach. This is a popular beach for surfers with its clear white sandy beach.

The waves are waist to belly, and the wind is about 4-5 m/s from west-northwest to northwest side to side on. It is not enough to wind, and in surfing, it is halfway through the wind, so we move to Eguchi-hama.

 

The image below is from the observation platform at Eguchi beach. The waves are knee to waist and the wind is about 8-10 m/s on the west-northwest to northwest side. As soon as we arrived, the locals started to appear in court.

I think the sail size is around 4.5 m2 and the board is around 80L. I also went out with a 5.0 m2 85L, but soon the wind dropped and I changed my board to a 95L. It is quite easy to have buoyancy on the board due to my age. lol;.;

I took some photos in the evening.

 

The conditions were not so good with north-northwest to northwest gusty and shifty, but I ended up having a lot of fun with a 5.0 m2 sail size and 95L board. But everyone was in good spirits! Wind is getting older just like motorcycles (^^;);

It had been a year and a half since I had ridden windsurfing, so I was a bit apprehensive, but I am glad I managed to ride. However, I was reminded that my strength and endurance have declined considerably, probably due to my age!Well, my body hurts here and there today (^^;See you later~(^^)/
