Its been a while since I posted on the blog. Things in the shire have been quite hectic as we have been gearing up for the summer season. The weather has been fantastic lots and lots of sunshine but very little wind. Kitesurfing courses have been few and far between but the lighter wind landboarding has been going strong. The conditions have been perfect for cruising the coastline on the Stand Up Paddleboards. The lack of surf for the last 4 weeks or so has meant the water is crystal clear. Check out the following video to see what I mean.
The coastline near Newgale has many caves, gullies and secluded beaches to explore and frequently seals and porpoises can be spotted along with nesting gulls and cormorants.
Other than the paddleboarding Big Blue has recently acquired a brand new Zapcat. The Zapcat is used as a safety boat for the kite school but also for wakeboarding, powerboat courses, Zapcat experiences and coasteering. If you have nt come across a Zapcat before they are very fast and very manouverable surf rescue craft, capable of bashing out through surf, jumping and turning on a six pence. Keep checking the blog and website as a new video will soon been posted.
The weather is set to be hot and sunny for another week and hopefully come Sunday a pulse of swell will kick in and last all week. Should be 2-3 ft with light offshores, check the webcam to see how it turns out.

I saw many blogs about surfing but I'm never tired of reading 'em all. I still enjoy every single word of it. Hope to share some photos when I get back from my holidays in pembrokeshire.
