STORM INGRID: K-BAY GALLERY
With strong SE winds forecast for K-Bay and a monster 4-metre swell at a solid 16-second period, a hardy windsurf crew rallied for what promised to be an all-time day of action. The weather, however, had other ideas. Too much south in the wind put a dent in the classic down-the-line dreams.
Not to be derailed by this minor glitch…cross-onshore winds and gnarly conditions…the crew dug deep, made the most of what was on offer and braved the elements for a solid mid-winter session.
