Whitsun in Hanstholm

Here's a few photos from our last trip to Thy. We had 2 days with something close to epic windsurf. Two days with good wind, big waves and sun :)

This is from Sunday afternoon just before we got in the water, at this time the waves was still quit small. During our session the waves got bigger and the wind got better and we surfed until dawn... This was the best session of the season until now!

Alone in the element

Really like this one with the spay from a pier in the foreground and the lone windsurfer in clear blue water

Monday the wind stated blowing again in the afternoon and within a hour it changed from nearly wind still to gale force. We sailed 4.2 which was our smallest, even though we could easily have sailed 3.7. Here is a few shots from Monday.

It was quite hard to hold the camera still in 16 m/s thus I had to discard most of the photos as they was unsharp.
