update 2: PKRA Germany Freestyle and Boardercross
After a few days of no wind and checking the wind forecasted for a million times we finally got some wind on Saturday. It was not windy enough to do the freestyle so the organization decided to do the boardercross. I was riding on my biggest kite my 14m torch 07 that was also the first time I had it in the air, and YES it is amazing!!!

When we started the wind dropped a little so I had to take another board. It was the 2007 Custom wide that board is so big that you can ride it in no wind and that was just the board I needed.

The board went like a rocked!!! In the first round I ended up 1st!!! The 2nd round I was again in the finals. I did not do so well as in the 1st round but it was good enough to win the boardercross!!!

That afternoon we checked the wind forecast, it changed again WIND for the next day. I went to bed early and had a good rest

On the Custom Wide I won the boardercross

Update 2 PKRA Germany

On the 18th we finally had some wind to do the boardercross. We all where riding with big kites 12 and 14 meter. It was pretty hard to keep your kite in the air at the start, because there was just a little bit of wind and there where people upwind and downwind of you. We did twice a single and double. I ended 4th.
The last day we had some wind to do the double. I past my first heat against Pauline Boussard, I was riding with my 12 and I was pretty stocked about the heat. I almost landed everything. I was in my next heat with Wiktoria Boszko from Poland. There was al most no wind, Wiktoria was riding a 9 and I 12. We tried to give all the best we could do with the light wind. I past my heat and the wind dropped all so we didn’t finish the doubles. So I ended 5th.

Results woman Freestyle:
1. Bruna Kajiya
2. Ania Grzelinska
3. Kristin Boese

PKRA Germany 1

Germany was pretty close for us so we just took the car and drove to St. Peter Ording ( Germany).

We had registration on Friday. The event side looked pretty good we have wireless internet and a lot more.

The first two days we had skippers meeting at 11 o’clock, but no wind. So we tried something else, Golf!! We drove to the drives ranges and played some golf.

The 15th we had storm conditions, all most everyone was riding with 6 and 7 meter kites. I was in the second heat with Angela Peral, we both had a good heat. I past and my next heat was with Bruna. I tried as much as possible but it was not enough. Bruna was riding strong and she made it to the final.

The first 2 days of the competition we would do hang-time but there was now wind so they canceled that…
Than Monday was the first day of the freestyle we chilled the whole day on the beach because there was no wind. At 5 o’clock they canceled it for the day. We went to bed early cause the wind forecasted looked very good for the next day. That night the wind picked up already so we knew it was going to be a good day.
When I woke up that morning I looked out of the window and it was really windy but also a lot of rain. Arriving on the beach the rain stopped, it was just for a few minutes and than the next rain cloud came in….
