El Pozo

Finally some windsurf! I have been in the water every day at Pozo. It takes me about 20 minutes to drive to Pozo from Arguineguin. 

Typical Pozo view.
                                       
Flag is standing straight out. 

Big rock beach.

Since I didn´t bring my 2.9 I had to rent a 2.8. I was overpowered anyway:-)

Fun to try out a new sail. Loftsails Purelip. I was overpowered and I had a bigger mast than recommended so I would say it´s difficult to give it a fair description of the sail. It felt light compared to my Superfreak. Easy to hold in the strong wind. Flexible. Didn´t really feel that the wind was on and off like some of the other guys did. So I guess the sail helped out with that. 
When I rigged my first thought is that the sail itself looked well built but the tack (downhaul area) looked cheap. 
I would like to give it a try with less wind and a 4.0 for a better feel.

So nice to be inte the warm and sunny Canary Islands. Going to Pozo again today...
