Well, I found a really good thing to start off my postings and the season of 2005 with! I just won the first PKRA World Cup Round of the year! I can tell you, the first event in the Tour is always the most exciting one because everybody shows how much he or she has improved during the competition break! I did not know what I had to expect from the other girls and, of course, I was really nervous. But also I had one advantage...I arrived here on Coche Island/Venezuela already four weeks before the competition started and could practice right at the spot every day. This way I got really used to the conditions and had enough time to prepare myself and my equipment. In the end it just worked out perfectly! I did well and was actually happy with almost all my heats (that does normally not happen very often).
