SCARY ...

i haven't write anything about the japanese earthquake ,
definitely it was shoking and terrible .
in the surfer and windsurfer point of view i think
THIS is scarier


first time i saw i was terryfied thinking what would you do if you were in the sea
facing that monster
anyway
all our positive energy to all the people in japan

IT'S ALL ABOUT SHARING

windsurf seems to be a lonely sport BUT it is not  there is a lot things
you can do when in the water with other surfers to share the passion
and the feelings you have.
in slalom  it is the speed and the need to go faster than the others
in freestyle it is to bust out a difficult move in front of your friends
and in waves it is the ultimate  :

SSSMOOKINN¨

not much bloging latetly ,normal if you consider thati i  was absorbed
 with the live pwa freestyle comp in vietnam   that ended today
also  it has been windy all of these days although i didn't windsurf enough .
actually it was nice  every day life: waking up early  in the morning ,coffee
3 hours of live freestyle comp  and then windsurfing
(or at least atempting to )
pwa summary :
kiri  thode  aka smoke was totally ripinn (smokin) in the water
and it was clearly obvious in the live coverage higher, better, more
stylish than everyone else and most of all not disturbed by the chop.
so he made it wining his first ever event !!
with bonaire and aruba  on the tour for this year he  will for sure, be the one to watch out for.
                                                    Pic: John Carter, PWA 2011

with not all of the riders managing to come to vietnam there was
room for new faces in the top of the fleet.
dieter van deyken and davy scheffers made their ( new generation) mark finishing 5th and 7th
yarden meir and antony ruenes had also a nice comp
making it to the top ten.on the other side steven was unlucky
and hurt his knee so didn't compete in the second single,
he was so unlucky that even  his boom crashed in one of his heats
but finaly
advanced (with the help of tonky sailing in the area with second set up) .
overall i enjoyed it a lot and i hope you did too slalom from today on
if you missed the action you can get an idea in kumas channel in youtube
with all 4 finals between kiri and golito
patras summary
wind has been blowing full power these days in patras but not always delivering good conditions
so everyone is in the carnival groove
forecast is good for the week hope we get some  good action
