Our best wave-windsurfing spot fails to disappoint. Hoiatus: videod on pikad ja igavad. Kui aega/tahtmist vähe, ärge vaadake!


Hiidlastel on ikka hea elu. Ärkad kell 7, sõidad Ristnasse… ja oled kohal juba veerand kaheksa, mitte kell pool kaks hahahaaaa : ) Algul oli kaamera jaoks veel liiga pime, aga pärast mõnusat kolmetunnist sõidupäeva tuli päikegi välja ning siis oli hea ja rahulik vaadata Ristna muretuid laineid, mis sinna omaette edasi tegutsema jäid.

The wind direction was not what they promised / what we expected. It was supposed to be windy and perfect side shore. But the waves were still good, and there is always plenty to learn about side-on-shore wave riding.

At the very end of the clip there is an example of a clean set waves that were so inviting yet so punishing at the same time. I was barely able to hold onto the gear this time.

Due to a popular demand I left in some waterstarts and scenes of swimming after the gear. But this was just a warm-up day – proper waves are here today, as the wind was > 30 m/s during the night.

The wind and waves came so late that pretty much everybody decided to go back to reality, away from the Ristna and Hiiumaa. Only a few brave ones stayed and were able to enjoy PWA rider Tuomo’s 360’s, his just fabulous wave selection, and also that priceless feeling of freedom and energy that the waves and wind are offering. All for free at the Baltic sea.

Did not find good waves today, but others did. Our autumn has finally started, with plenty of good days still ahead hopefully.
