Kiteboardopen(2nd eurotour stop)
5/26/2010 12:50:19 PM
Since I can remember there was the Kiteboardopen at Noordwijk, always a great event but never windy.
It was the same this year. We only had two hours of wind the first day and were able to ride the first two
rows of the singles. Through this I made it to the 9th place after winning my heat without an opponent..
next heat was against Anton Borsuk, he's a really good rider and he advanced to the next round.
Still I was angry because I didn't get my color lycra till 2 minutes before the start and by the time that I was
at the upwind side of the competition area the heat already started and I was exhausted from running.
I complained about this with the organisation but they didn't really bother..
Made me even more angry.. well, next time!

There's also always a good party which was even better this year because it was my birthday as well.
We went full on!

Saturday I'm flying back to norway to work over there for a few months, I will still fly back now and then to do
the Eurotour, still to come are Germany, Switserland and Poland.

Well, for now that's it, here are some pictures:

Eurotour Austria
5/10/2010 5:52:53 PM

Last week Bram and me went to the first stop of the Eurotour in Austria. It was a really cool event!
When we arrived the windsurfers who had the worldcup there the week before just went home. It was raining and the forecast wasn't looking really hopefull either.
The next day however we had 20-25 knots side off-shore wind and sun. It was perfect for the competition!
I won my first heat against Streicher and had to go against Mario Rodwald in my next heat.
This was just another level of riding of which I couldn't compare myself with to Mario went on to the next round. He came 3rd in the end.
Still I think I've ended on the 15th place, hopefully I can get a bit further next time at the stop in Noordwijk.
After that we didn't have anymore wind and just had some insane party's on the event and als went to bratislava for some sightseeing there.

I've uploaded some pictures to my gallery, but I've got some here as well.
