‘I don’t what it is about these trips, when I miss them I have such a sense of uneasiness, more because on these long drives the banter is amazing. So as soon as I got a green light from the wife I was on my way, at the expense of Adam Lewis I think. JC and I were folded up in the kids’ seats in the back. Jamie was still faking an injury, so he rode shotgun. Sure enough we went through all the normal craic, slagged off everyone in the windsurf world, ate junk food and speculated about what the hell the beach was going to look like? We had 6 hours to wonder! I’ve been to Fraisthorpe, a long time ago for a Severne demo, It was glassy. Today looked a hell of a lot better. Good waves and lots of wind. I took a 4.2 Blade and my 76 Fanatic tri fin. Not being a huge fan of wave riding in lots of wind I was itching to get back to Filey, but to my surprise ended up having a good sail, it’s a massive beach with loads of room, so you can find a peak and have it to yourself. Filey had some better waves, more power and more cross off wind. I sailed until I almost passed out. In my books that was a good day.’
