Read all about it where it was at its worst in Stirlingshire and Perthshire on my
Big brothers blog...
Back to the big dune where my friend Jason snapped a pic of me riding down a couple of weeks ago, its base now filled in with sand being blown after it was washed away in ` the big storm` that changed a lot of our coast line over 13 months ago...
A few folk liked the pic so i did some filming using the Go Pro camera on the tri pod to see what it looked like, setting was r5 with r4 setting on the chest harness,
a lot of sand has exposed the roots of the grass on the Northern dune so i kept off of that as it would cause erosion...
Access up onto the top of the big dune is now easy on a firm shallow in the centre of the pic...
Apart from a group of joggers i had the beach to myself for over 2 hours...
This was fun..
Dune surfing looks nice. How come the dunes can stay that big and steep? Shouldn't wind and water even out the terrain?
ReplyDeleteI think that the grass stablises the dunes and wind builds more sand onto them and the grass continues to grow building a semi stable hill...
ReplyDeletei love riding down dunes on the pugsleY!
Surf's up! Really cool! Right tool at the right place. =)
