Hi, this is me getting my new Bic 6.8 T-Rig from my sponsors Mark Van Den Bos and Gary Baugh, Managing Directors of KEYO Agricultural Services Ltd. I really like the new sail and I would like to thank KEYO for helping me.
I have found the jump from the 5.5 sail to the 6.8 a big change and it is taking me a little time to get used to it. I have had the sail about four weeks and I have used it in number of race events.
On 12th and 13th June I went to Farmoor Reservoir to a UKWA event where most of the top youth windsurfers were. There was not much wind and I came 25th out 29 6.8 & 7.8 competitors (Results). This was my first race in a big fleet and I was pleased with my place.
On the 28th and 29th of June I went to Bridlington for my first sea event. I have sailed at Weymouth in the big harbour but not on the open sea. I was a little worried but the sea was not too bad. I thought this was a great event and I really enjoyed sailing on the sea. All the top youth windsurfers were there and I came 21st out of 27 6.8 & 7.8 competitors (Results). I was really pleased with this position.
I would like to work harder and try to get better positions in the fleet.
