Chámalle Dirk
Parece que ha sido una ciclogénesis, que los chicos de la Universidad de Berlín han bautizado como Dirk. Ha sido algo así como el hermano pequeño de Klaus, para entendernos. Ayer por la mañana ya flotaba en el ambiente que nos venía encima algo gordo, pues las rachas empezaban a ser importantes. Me acerqué en la moto a grabar unas tomas en las playas de fuera, el viento ya era muy fuerte pero la mar todavía no pasaba de 3-4m. Por la tarde, en Caranza, creo que tuvimos rachas de 40-50 nudos. La tarde acabó mal para mí, pues rompí el palo aterrizando plano un salto, y tuve que volver a tierra realizando la travesía a nado más dura que recuerdo...
We have had quite a hard storm blowing here at Ferrol yesterday, we took the chance and windsurfed in the heavy winds, it was more a question of facing the threat and survive, than the typical fun day windsurfing.

Howling winds at Caranza
Vuelve el SW a barrer con fuerza nuestra ría. Resulta demasiado arriesgado aventurarse en las playas de fuera, con olas de cerca de 6 metros triturando todo lo que se encuentran a su paso. Hoy tocaban unos bordos de slalom desenfrenado, con la AHD freediamond y la boxer 7m, que en muchas ocasiones costaba mantener bien cazada...
Howling winds blew over Caranza beach today, providing a demanding slalom training playground. Many times overpowered on my 7m, trying to hold all things together.
