WITTERINGS: AS GOOD AS IT GETS!
WITTERINGS: AS GOOD AS IT GETS!Henning Von Jagow looks back on an unforgettable session at West Wittering last weekendone he says was as good as it gets. With the likes of Lucas Meldrum, Max Metcalfe and a crew of local rippers tearing it up in nuking northwest winds and pumping waves, Henning swam out to capture the action and came away with some spectacular water shots.Text and Images by Henning von Jagow / @henningvonjagowAs Good As It GetsIt was one of those perfect autumn days on the South Coast, the kind that makes you forget its October. The water was warm, the sun still had some bite, and West Wittering Jolliffe Road turned into the unofficial headquarters for every wind junkie between Brighton and Portsmouth.By lunchtime, the place looked like a kite and windsurfing convention. Of course, the usual local suspects were shredding as always, but even the big names showed up, kitesurf world champion Aaron Hadlow himself, pro windsurfer Lucas Meldrum, and of course JR local Max Metcalfe, all launching themselves into a bright blue sky.Tiny sails were everywhere: if you didnt have a 3.4 or maybe the 3.7todays heavyweight champion, you were probably sitting on the beach watching. Everyone was out on small waveboards, bouncing, jumping, and grinning like kids on Christmas morning.Out to sea, whitecaps covered the horizon. The wind blew from the west-northwest, classic cross-shore, making for perfectly lined-up waves. Great for jumps, even better for those lucky enough to catch the sets and score some proper wave rides.All in all, it was one of those Saturdays that sticks in your head, a sweet reminder of why we love this coast, and a tasty teaser for what we hope will be an epic winter season.The post WITTERINGS: AS GOOD AS IT GETS! appeared first on Windsurf Magazine.
