LAST BLAST
By this time, the wind had dropped dramatically but the swell was up another level with solid mast high sets rolling through in orderly lines. From reports of those that hung on at Avon the conditions also cranked in there at the same time with building swell and more manageable wind. Wearily, Timo headed out for one last encounter with Imogen, this time on a 5m sail and floaty wave board! His first wave looked solid with a barrelling lip, Timo went at it full vertical but the power and speed of the wave literally engulfed his sail and spat him down into the sand. That was pretty much game over for the day. With the wind dropping and more bashes and bruises, it was time to throw in the towel to this mighty storm. At least the wind had dropped off meaning that my ferry would hopefully be running.
