What a yr it’s been!
A worldwide pandemic and nationwide lock down positively wasn’t one thing we had been planning for this yr, however ‘it’s what it’s’ and all the time remembering that the solar shines after the rain we weathered the storm and made finest use of time, able to adapt to a brand new regular and get again on the water.
Fortuitously selecting to stay our lives in an outside salt water setting we had been early again to motion and it tasted candy after the break. Situations on that first session would usually have been thought of common to poor, however that day it felt wonderful.
And the strong classes that adopted had been unbelievable.
It shortly grew to become clear we weren’t the one ones eager to benefit from the outside and I don’t assume anybody may have predicted fairly how busy seashore life and watersports would change into nationwide.
Right here we struggled by means of an inflow of holiday makers to Dorset seashores so giant {that a} main incident was declared.
Trade and worldwide there was a delay in provide and a global scarcity of paddle boards as folks ‘stay-cationed’ or learnt one thing new within the early prolonged summer time.
The climate couldn’t have been significantly better. The solar shone and the wind blew nearly each single day of June, July and early August and we had been buzzing to see a lot kite motion right here at Poseidon.
We helped extra folks than ever change into kiteboarders and watched as lots of them quickly began cranking turns and busting their first air. Properly executed you guys and thanks to your assist.
For certain we struggled to suit everybody in, our admin was somewhat overwhelming and there have been a couple of drained faces on the group, so to anybody who didn’t get out for a session – we’re sorry, however please tell us once you’re able to attempt once more.
For now, we’ve bought our sights on Autumn, or what we prefer to name ‘The Windy Season’, when the low stress techniques begin pushing more durable throughout the Atlantic and delivering a gradual stream of westerly wind into the seashore the place it’s nonetheless heat, simply quieter.
It appears like we’re not fairly there but, having been caught in limbo wind for the previous few weeks, not fairly one factor or the opposite, however with a document variety of vital low stress techniques at the moment circling the Atlantic there’s a storm brewing. We’re excited for it, it’s our favorite time of yr when the water remains to be heat and the sky is stuffed with vitality, the classes are stuffed with recollections and vitality amongst riders is contagious, count on to see our group excited.
We’ll be taking advantage of it at Poseidon so get able to enter the 2020 Dorset large air competitors from October 1st, check out the newest Enduro V3 and Torque V2 equipment from Ozone, decide up a cut price in our used equipment sale and almost certainly see a particular supply or two alongside the way in which too. Then hopefully, simply perhaps, a social get collectively to relive the recollections, however that’s all the way down to how Covid and ‘the powers that be’ behave.
Thanks once more and effectively executed kitesurfing neighborhood, what a summer time!
