Morgen gaat het los op Coche. We hebben al aardig wat gezeur gehoord over de VKWC ofwel de PKRA's in een nieuw jasje. Zowel van riders als juryleden. In totaal zijn er 49 riders uit 18 landen komen opdagen. Windvoorspellingen op de vlakwater spot met aflandige wind zien er goed uit.
Liam Whaley heeft gewonnen in Dakhla en staat dus op nr1. Inmiddels land Liam Whaley ook Tacks double half cab mobe dus dat voordeel is Tack kwijt. We zijn benieuwd of Tack of misschien Youri Zoon hem kunnen veslaan op Coche. Ook Kevin Langeree is neergestreken in Coche om de BigAir competitie op 11 en 12 juni mee te doen; hij gaat momenteel aan de leiding in deze discipline.
Isla de Coche, Venezuela (Monday, June 8, 2015) - The best riders in the world have all gathered in Isla de Coche for the registration of the second stop of the Virgin Kitesurf World Championships (VKWC). 49 participants from 18 countries are ready to battle and show their best tricks in both freestyle and big air disciplines.
20 to 25 knots is forecast for the next few days and it is looking very promising for the rest of the week.
" We usually have great conditions here and the forecast seems to be pretty good. I think the event is going to be excellent and I am very happy to welcome the World Tour again. I am a kiteboarder and I do this for the love of the sport. Everybody loves kiteboarding here and I think we can expect a large audience to support the competition " Ricardo Farr, local organizer.
Great freestyle action is expected. Current number one Liam Whaley (ES) will try to claim his first back-to-back victory after having won the first stop in Dakhla, Morocco. He will fight against more experienced riders such as reigning world champion Christophe Tack (BE), five-time world champion Aaron Hadlow (GB) and also two-time world champion Youri Zoon (NL).
As for the ladies, this second event of 2015 VKWC season will again see nine-time world champion Gisela Pulido (ES), current freestyle world champion Karolina Winkowska (PL) and 2009 world champion Bruna Kajiya (BR) doing their utmost to beat off the competition.
