First round completed !

Incredible storms and very strong wind woke up everybody at 6am in the morning … It all disappeared in 30 minutes … came back around 9am … and disappeared again ….
We had to wait until 2pm and the wind finally established itself North / East between 12 and 15 knots.

We launched the first heat straight away facing the two “Jeremie's” (Eloy & Tronet) of the Jim Beam Kiteboard World Cup 2004 against the Turkish rider Aykurt Tanyr. The “frenchies” easily found their way to the second round. Jeremie Eloy looked on top form and his performance is rather promising for the coming days.

In the second heat, Charles Deleau, the 2003 KPWT World Champion, peaceful, more and more confident with double handle pass, and Ofri Argov from Israel, fighting hard for the World title, won their place for the second round.

Congratulations to the young kid coming up Kevin Langeree ! He impressed the public and the judges. He is definitely a rising star of the kiteboarding planet … No surprise with Cedric Le Bourgocq, very technical, who went also through. Ogueday Ozel defended with courage and determination the colors of Turkey in front of Mickaël Fernandez, from France, who keeps improving his style and his surf.

Coming from Morocco, Soufiane Hamaini did rather well and will continue the fight for the victory ! Last but not least, Guillaume Mariani, our French athlete, confirmed his talent .

We completed the first round as the sun was going down … Everybody is appointed at 8am tomorrow morning. The show will go on !!!! Get connected.
