Ian Whittaker: Witterings
Looking at the forecast on Tuesday night, it looked epic for Wednesday. So myself, Emile Kott, Jamie Hawkins, Dan Macaulay and Paul Metcalfe arranged to meet at my house at which is just off Joliffe Road. As we were deciding which sail to use it was mid tide coming in and the sets were booming head to logo high, I opted to go with my 5.0 combat on my 94 Goya. Sailing out I realised I it was not a normal Witterings day and the wave had decent power coming from a 16 second period. My first wave was probably the best, I had a big aerial then six turns. The swell just got bigger as the tide came in, and it was awesome sharing waves with my mates. There were just five of us out and we had the sea to ourselves. I scored so many waves I lost count and now I have the blisters to show for it!
