Probably too early to call it but the forecast for
Thursday onwards looks quite interesting guys.

Sun makes an appearance at the weekend so may hold off
til then personally, but the waves could be epic at the
right spot? Could be of the massive kit breaking variety
too

Seaton Point work in NW Mr Boyd?

Anyone else up for permanently shrinking their manhoods
give me a hola

actually the latest forecasts have a mild spell for wednesday, then the temperatures are going from a mild green to a ice blue. may be wind but with an icy bite.

seaton point is offshore in a NW. check out multimap, you can check out the coastline and see all the beaches to see what works in what direction, but by the weekend it is spring high tides just after lunch so there will not be much beach left anywhere. the best place would have been budle bay had it been open as you could have sailed across the bay to the mouth which is cross shore in a nw and one of the best places at spring high tide. 

back now fully mended but awaiting the arrival of some milder decent proper weather, not worth getting wet and cold otherwise and inflicting or aggravating an injury.

you have much to learn young luke...........

just read on the caledonian windsurfing website of a potential problem cold weather can bring, sails become more brittle and a few have torn panels in the cold - and on good quality foils as well.

I'll just be pleased if I can get my van started Steve.

It's 3 degrees not -20, but I take your point. I've not
been out for so long that I don't care about hyperthermia,
permanent shrinkage and arthritis, if there's F5 and
massive doable waves I'll be on it like gromit!

Redcar could be feasible although it will invariably be
less windy down there (as usual).

Can we not borrow some 12 bores and do something about
those bloody birds at Budle Bay?!

Why not try blyth today Joe. Defo not too cold and flatwater blasting galore (hopefully) no loops though?
