PWA Sylt 2010 Day 3
Skippersmeeting was plant at 10AM. When arriving at the worldcup location it was already “raining cats and dogs”. After rigging and bringing all my gear to the beach it was a matter of a waiting. But minutes later new weather updates showed that the wind would might come late midday from NE direction. This means offshore and really gusty winds. Finally at 17:00 the PWA decided to give it a try and started of with the first round. During the first rounds the wind was shifting from directions all the time When warming-up I was sailing with my biggest gear 5,7 Neilpryde Firefly and My JP Ausltralia Freestyle 107. With just a couple of other riders I was one of the only one who could get into planning speed. When the first heat was sailed from 2nd round the organisation decided putting the competition on hold. One hour of waiting the PWA eventually decided to cancel the competition for this today. If tomorrow will be windy I have to sail in heat nr. 12 which means I am in the 2nd heat. If not there might be some slalom sailing, during the day.
