Friday 18th: Sta. Brigida with Judith, Geoff and various Catalan friends, Joan, Sergi, Tomàs ... It was a classic StaB day with strong north wind at the coast so we expected good flying :)
The wave over the Pyrenees was spectacular and much closer to us than is usual so there was some uppy-downy stuff going on!

Alien spaceships!
After getting unceremoniously, high-speed splatted into the rocks after getting picked up and spun round into a full twist, I sat out most of the afternoon :(
Smiley Xevi
is back from his year and a bit in Mexico so there was lots of chat and catching up to do when he wasn't skying out on his shiney new Peak2.
By evening, the initial pain had gone and the sky was too nice to miss so Judith and I flew in silky smooth, but still thermic air playing with shadows and trying to get the best wave-bar pictures.
