TOW IN

on the way back to greece and with a  superb forecast for patras and
my favorite spot drepano ,couldn't ask for more .
i found some time (and fast enough internet connection) to upload
some pics of the tow in comp
unfortunately because of the flu and the weakness followed i didn't
participate .
to tell you the truth i am not so amazed by this new fashion ,
for sure it is a way to keep the sailors and the spectators  busy
but in  this occasion i prefer to watch than to be towned in
anyway it seems that in italy there is a lot of trainning
because most of the italians were very kind of the situation

gigi air funnels

while  mattia fabrizi ponches

move of the warm up was this ponch from soouza
who went up from the small wave of the boat

kenny jansen from belgium was also in the final
and very used to tow in

 adam sims was trainning in home before this event

and then was capturing the  action

he was one of the less that captured this matador
the first one ever landed ,at least from what steven says
for sure the first he tried
(sorry for the foton quality  )

stam was on the top 8 final

 while alex didn't make it landing this burner

on the final the next day weather conditions were not good
for fotoshooting so no fotos of that
propably you already have seen the results on the net
julien was good also but i didn't find any picture of him :(
weather was generali not good for the event as we didn't have any
wind but the first day that we arrived .
anyway i took a trip to a small island near the spot
called la madalena and it was really beatiful

i leave you with that foto and will come back later
with full report of the trip and maybe something new
of the good days coming here in patras
where our ship just arrived

ps: no more italian espresso  arghhhhhh
