North coast and Cemais Bay, with some super Winter sunshine was the start of this weekends InterMediate sea kayaking course which was made up of - Leif, Keith, Noel, Graham and Mandy.
Out side and inside edged turns, down wind runs, contact tows and some surfing ....
Mandy having caught a nice wave in ... ;)
And then a journey across the bay and into some bigger swell. Towing, in-line, rafted and assisted tows
...
Sunday and a gloomier, wintry forecast and the Straits form Moel y Don to Menai Bridge and back. There was a super push of the tide as we surged under Britannia Bridge!
Loads of eddy turns and ferry glides and as the flow slowed, working on really getting that body working and emphasising the turn ... some eyes closed work too! Lunch and then a return journey with wind against tide and a super run. Closer to the end we pulled over and got some fair rides and surfs back up the flow ...

And now Noel and Leif heading for Moel Y Don ...
Congratulations to Graham for passing the 3 star performance award.
The next InterMediate sea kayaking course, which currently has places on is the 27/28th June.
Have fun out there ...
