So it turns out the sea is cold this time of year...

Hightailed (great word!) to Croyde on Thursday night for my first waves of the year. It rained like cats and dogs all the way down which didn't bode well, but I woke up to beautiful skies and the highest tide even the locals had seen for years. The wing was onshore and the seas were heavy so my surfing was a bit poor, but I didn't mind. Just good to be out again. But man, its was cold!
