Was in Galo today. After floating a bit out of the bay the wind started to work, but forecast was faulty and wind dropped after 14.00. Still had some fun but due to direction it was more like Gust-surfing, planning only 50% of time 🙂

Torö should be very nice tomorrow! I wish everybody to be there from the sunrise 🙂

Yes! It was fun wih 5.6, caught some small waves which became bit bigger in evening. Altogether – 4 hours of riding with 0.5 hour break. I tried stony beach on the left as a starting point, but there was a reef and stones, but easier to come out and come in without waves. Can’t find the best way to start there…
Also today had very nice day in Sandarna. Perfect direction for bump&jump 🙂 Started with 6.6 and ended with 5.6 in the evening. Nice, strong gusts and super-warm air temprature for November, even with a rain I felt a bit overheated in winter wetsuit 😛

Hi! Anybody knows about Toro and N-N-W like tomorrow? Will it work?
UPD: I’ll try Bylehamn tomorrow, looks better.

Thanks a lot for videos, good captured. I am not such a good windsurfer, BUT I had soooo much fun riding on the swell, after 13 pm it worked ok with my 5.6 and I had fantastic rides. I hope I’d had 4.7 or 5.0 sometimes, but it was fun, I was riding until sunset 🙂

For me the best way I discovered is to walk with rig to the Western tip of Sandarna and start there, then go back to the neighbouring beach, which is, by the way more clean and comfortable. (I am not sure if it’s called Klacknäset, Google Maps doesn’t show it to me)

You ask me? If yes, I should tell you that I wrote about Sandarna beaches, here, near Bjorkvik, not about Toro.

I got really nice surprise, yesterday in the morning, came at 7 a.m., but the wind didn’t stop until 15.30. Nearly 9 hours windsurfing session. That was awesome, just went to a neighbouring beach to Sandarna, a bit south-west. Sandarna itself was calm ant quiet, but that beach I started from was really crazy wind machine, I had several hours with stable 10-11 m/s under big nice clouds and much sun. It was really day of a dream 🙂

Toro was super-cool today until the very evening with 8 or more people on water (half went usual surfing). Tomorrow I expect nice pressure in Sandarna, but unfortunately in Toro I finished with braking my mast in the wave and I tried to find one, but at Sunday no shops work so I hope so much that I will rent or borrow the mast somewhere… Maybe somebody can borrow/sell 430 rdm, or knows where I can buy it tomorrow? Thanks 🙂

I hope so, but I discovered Sandarna beach is much prettier for windsurf, Bjorkvik is a bit too crowded as for me right now. As for tomorrow, I am trying to understand if Toro works better. Is seems the wind will be noticeably more powerful. Let’s see the forecast tomorrow morning 🙂

Today 12-18 p.m. caught some powerful planning conditions with 7.7 in Torö. I was the only one on water 🙂
In the evening the direction changed to side-off-shore, but still nice and ridable 8-10 m/s.

Hello everybody. Thanks a lot for help with the boom. I’ve been waiting for account approval for a month, but now I can say big Thanks to Grrrr.
