CRETE REPORT

well 7 out of 10 days sailling is good score , with 2 days with waves and 5 days freestyle when

nowhere else in greece blowing it gets even better .

unfortunately i haven' got my camera yet so fotos only from markus a german toyrist who came 2 days in the beach looking to kite..... anyway

big thnx to my friend manolis http://www.gre77.blogspot.com/ and his

girlfriend evina for the hospitality and the great food :).

my first day in the island i sailed falasarna beach

a very famous break for crete which provided

conditions to stand up for its reputation :

1.5-2 meter waves side off with clean parts 3-4 turns perfect, but no fotos (as always when it's good everyone is sailing and nobody taking pics )

then i had freestyle sessions in falasarna in another spot

with different wind direction and ellafonhsi

which is a very beautiful beach in south crete but also no fotos

and the 2nd wave day was in paleochora with the following action

me and my friend manolis among waves
