Idag startar jag min surf säsong igen med 5.0. Vilken skön dag i ultraviolett frys 😁

[nordsurfer]

Salnö promises great surf on Sunday, most likely I will be there 🙂

[nordsurfer]

Now I am in Salnö. Very good with 4.5, but gusts hit hard sometimes. Trying to hold on 😁

P.s.: It seems that even though I lost 2 hours when I went to Svartklubben, I was in Salnö right in time, and 2.5 hours of ride I had were actually 2 hours of ridable weather. So I am very happy to be this lucky!

Svartklubben is still too much even for 4.5
I don’t think its surfable, need to wait some time 😀

As far as I can see, the most hardcore party takes place near Svartklubben Lighthouse.
Yes, northern winds are cold, yes weather can be shitty (this time looks ok), but I can’t imagine myself sitting somewhere with those wind whistling sounds and feel okay, I need to be on the fucking spot!

And, for sure I cheat a little bit with this heated vest and faster driving. https://www.heatedwetsuits.com/product/thermalution-surf-series-15m/

Hey Boris @nordsurfer

Me I only use the windy app to get a overview of the weather/wind system. However I always go to SMHI.se to see the wind forecast!

From what I can see the wind will be extremely gusty the coming days wherever you go but of course it will be better the closer you’re to the Baltic Sea!

Rullsand

Salnö

Singö

Stora Värtan

Thanks a lot for your advice. What I am trying to guess, where people will go and where is the most stable wind and better waves 🙂 As for now I am trying to choose between Salnö and Väddö Sandvikens hamn. Rullsand seems to work tomorrow in the evening better than on Thursday (which I am planning to go on).

P.s.: According to the forecast, the best conditions are on Singö. As I can understand, the spot where I marked on the photo

P.p.s.: It seems to be better near Svartklubben Lighthouse as @mr_soft said. But I still don’t know where exactly to go 🙂

Very Interesting place. But my forecast app says the wave will be there, but wind is not very stable.

This is me 🙂 But it seems to be Wednesday now.
As far as I can analyse the conditions, the best spot will be ByleHamn, due to side-shore wind in there. Rullsand seems to be the best spot but forecast says there will be not much wind 🙁 And the direction seems, a bit not for that spot. Tell me if I am wrong.

The big beach to the left

But as the forecast looks like now it’s too much, I hope it decreases quite a lot..

Well, Väder is a good local app for short-term info, but for longer forecasts I’d prefer Windy (with blue icon) where you can compare different forecast models and see that 32 m/s forecast was not likely to happen. Even more, it predicts sunny weather and no rain at all. The väder changed now for the same.
The forecast changed several times, maybe once it was way too paranoid. At least now we can see forecast for all the day in Salnö, and pretty much nothing in Rullsand. I’ll keep an eye and hope someone else will give it a try 🙂
Let’s see!

Wow! Looks like very nice place, I’ve never been there. Where is the spot itself, in NNW direction?

[nordsurfer]

Hello everybody! Check out forecast for Thursday on Väddo! Somebody wants to go? Which spot do you think works better in NNW?

Daniel, the best ones I have right now are Rip Curl 5mm flashbomb with two separated fingers, which I cut inside for better grip. It works perfectly for 3+ temperatures. I think the closest product in surfspot you can get is this one LINK. And if you got cold with this one, you can try this LINK, they make you feel we’re warm but they try to sleep off every 2-3 runs.

[nordsurfer]

Hi! Today I was on the beach next to Sandarna. Perfect place in South-West. In the evening even a bit overpowered with 5.6. Felt like very warm day, comfortable in wetsuit. Also, one big pine on the beach fell down after night storm.

Anyone going to ByleHamn/Väddö tomorrow? Yes, it’s going to be cold (but still good for January), but wind will be perfect, and sun all day!

Plans changed, wind dropped.

;Разве это не было очень холодно ..

Yes it was, but ripcurl 6/4 + thermalution heated jacket (http://www.thermalution.com/Product_water_surf.html) + good gloves makes you feel like future is coming (really warm) 🙂 and forget about cold. Recommended for “hungry for windsurfing folks” in Northern winds. (not an advertisment :))
It was -3 but with this equipment it was all about ability to ride in gloves. Also it depends on water temprature, it’s still something like 6, and it makes you feel a bit warmer in my opinion… It’s my first winter in Stockholm climate and I am trying to figure out when I need to close the season 🙂
