Island Fever

Wednesday 29th April

We had a classic skerries session this evening at Shenick island. Tom L, Oisin, Ali and myself rigged at 5 and sailed till 8 on 4.7 sails. In a south east wind you get small waves for jumping on the way out and dead flat water in the bay of Shenick island for freestyle. When the sun comes out as it did for a while this evening and the tide is on the retreat this place definitely has something special to offer. Oisin claimed his first Kono while trying to learn burners I think? He said he carved the other way, thats into the wind while switch stance and backwinded and just took off into the rotation! Couldn't believe his luck. Well done. I think he will be trying them off a wave very soon!

See you all at the Fleadh Sheoil festival on the weekend!
