The forecasts were bad for the beginning of this Mondial du Vent so it was hard to hope for the speed contest in good conditions… But finally, the Tramontane always faithful to Leucate rose in genuine blower to make it possible to launch 4 sets on a ultra technique and disordered run. Speed flirted with 40 knots, falls were violent in consequences : the show was magnificent.
The 2 firsts set take place in terribly difficult conditions and waves keep demolishing the run and the riders get fears more than once. It is necessary to skirt the edge of beach to hope to scrape some knots.
Take note that : Bjorn Dunkerberque’s best passage by windsurf was 35.21 knots for this 1st set. This is faster than the kites. Photo: Fabio Ingrosso To get men’s results for the 1st set, click here, girls’ ones, it is there!
