When I returned I had to take a month off the water. Not a big deal since the season didn’t start for a month. The ankle was still giving me some problems, and was attending physio often, I hate to admit its not 100% yet,but nothing I can deal with. Just keeping my fingers crossed I don’t re-injure it. This was the second injury tot eh same ankle.
Pre Season me and a buddy launched Prairie Ocean Windsurfing, a local windsurfing school to help promote windsurfing in Manitoba. Over the summer we got some new blood into the sport and helped people improve there skills, plus had a blast.
This was also the first season I dedicated myself to keeping a windsurfing log, had done it before while racing, but never after every session. This season I recorded a little over 30 sessions, only missing about 5. I sailed mostly 4.7 – 5.8 with a few session on bigger and a few on smaller. Most of my time I was riding at Willow Island or Victoria beach where I scored some huge days. I found the log helped me improve, letting me focus on what I need to work on, and things I did right or wrong during that session. I would deffinitley recomend it to anyone looking to step up there game, and I will for sure keep doing it.
Anyways the Manitoba season is officially over for me, as I’m off to Club Ventos, Icaraizhino Brazil this afternoon.
Enjoy the Photos after the jump. (more…)
