7-9-2006, Tarifa, Spain
So after a lovely trip to the Gorge where i had fun and spend some good time with the slingshot homies!! Got the new kites and like them here in Tarifa a lot...
Yesterday was the day were we started the freestyle, first round i was against Christian Holley from Spain...I had an ok heat and advanced to the next round where i met russian ripper Petr Thuskevisch...He kicked my ass so i lost in the second round, pretty sad but i just need to clear up my mind and get back into the competition mood!! Will come...
The whole day it was super windy, so i enjoyed it a lot on my 7m!! After we finished the Freestyle with Aaron Hadlow and Youri Zoon in the final, we did a best trick contest! It was judged on 70% height and 30% technical...So i went out there in the first heat i had to show off for 8 minutes, was soo much fun busting moved likes huge slimchance with a handlepass after it, big kung-fu frontroll handlepasses...I just gave a show and had fun!! I went into the final with 4 other guys, Alex Soto from Dominican Republic was going off too...At the end i won the best trick, i didn't know because i stayed out on the water for some more tricks!! And i got a new move out there...A real kiteloop handlepass, huuuggeeee....So i go hooked in pull a massive kiteloop backloop as i unhook in the air and then do a flat 3
...It's bigger than the normal unhooked kiteloop handlepasses so let's see what this brings us!
I'll try to kick some butt in the double elimination and see how far i'll come...
I really enjoy Tarifa, we stay at a Red Bull house which is right near the comp area...Thanks Andread and Red Bull!!
KIIILLLLL IITTT!!!
