| KPWT has WIND!! 2/6/2006, Lake Como, Italy |
|
Yesterday nothing happened cause we had no wind. That evening was a sick Freestyle motocross show. The building up took like a whole day and at night when they went off it was insane what those guys pulled off!! I'll get some pictures later. To bad that they only rode for half an hour. Then we went back to the hotel and did a nice sleeping session. I woke up at 9:15 am and the skippers meeting was at 9:30. So I went down and straight into the van. The morning the wind sucked a lil bit but it got better. So I prepared for my heat. In my heat I took out a 9m2 just like the guy I was against. So I went out and it was so flipping gusty... that 1 time you were lit out of your mind and the other time your working your ass off to get going. I did some nice moves like: a S-bend with the kite almost on the water, a nice powered slimchange, a kiteloop handlepass and some more tricks... but it was not enough to beat the other guy... although everyone on the beach including the guy I was competing against said that I had won it, but I guess the judges thought different. Well the only thing I can do now is hope for enough wind for the double elimination. The wind by the way started howling and kites where lifted and trown away... it was insane!! but nobody got hurt....... yet  !I just got informed that the judges made a mistake and that they reversed the judgement! So I passed the heat instead of the other guy!! So I'm still in the running  |

Gare Jury dan btw ... nouja, shit happens. Gelukkig was het niet andersom: eerst jij wel winnen, en dan erachter komen dat ze een foutje hebben gemaakt!
