Piccadilly Circus . . . London. =]
It is a Mega surf on top which is a cross between a wave ski and a kayak,all the guys in the wave ski comp were telling me that I should get a wave ski and I was getting tempted until I saw how much quicker mine was on the paddle out.I think it qualifies for either wave ski competitions or kayak.
We are at Otur now having left Pantin at midday, a few days and it is back to sunny Southampton
There are some great wave breaks at Playa de Otur, Luarca, Asturias look them up on Either Surf-forecast.com or you- tube.
Great that you had a good time at Pantin, interesting about your surf on top viz a vis a wave ski, brilliant bit of kit though, some of our guys in the Island Canoe Club go out round the needles etc and canoe round the Island.
I love the Hydra-foil Surfers unreal sometimes, we have a lot over here.
Enjoy the rest of your trip and hope the weather holds for you..... where’s your normal go to place with the van & surf for a day ?
I surfed Otur yesterday afternoon
Kimmeridge is my favourite local spot and Sennen is my favourite spot in Devon/Cornwall.
Funny you should mention round the Island,I have fond it solo

Sorry I have done it solo 4 times now and aiming to do it again on 9th October because since the last time I did it other people have knocked me out of the top ten
Performance Sea Kayak - Isle of Wight Circumnavigation Records
I have a faster boat now and will be launching from Scratchells instead of Bembridge because I always struggle on the Needles to St.Catherines leg so instead of tackling that part after halfway I will be doing that leg first,really aiming to beat Mark Rainsley but that probably means I will have to beat my IOW mate Andy Hiscock too.It may well be my last chance as I am 57 now.Hoping for the right weather(winds under 15mph)
It has been a brilliant surfing holiday and your tips have been superb and really helpful,thank you so much
I have enough go pro footage to edit into a great film when I get back

Always enjoy seeing where everyone has been but never post my own adventures (phone and forum posting not my strong point!) 
- so here goes, lovely day at the top of the Great Orme, Llandudno - no matter what the weather always a fab place to be

I’ll keep a lookout on the day
Really glad you’ve had a great time & look forward to seeing your film if you post it
I've got to say, that picture of your van nestled in amongst the trees in the Keilder forest, is just about my ideal type of camping. V jeleous
Nice quiet night near Brecon, Cwm Llwch 
That looks ace, that does.
