Many competitors wasted little time getting on the water today to test their equipment ready for the start of racing tomorrow. The steady onshore winds of the past few days ensured it was a “challenging” session, and some will be hoping that the wind direction changes before 11.00 am tomorrow! [more]
Forty two competitors, from 10 countries, have registered. Max Wojcik from Poland is here to defend his title, and he can expect a strong challenge (again) from Patrik Pollak (SVK 1) , Curro Manchon (ESP 9) and Juozas Bernotas (LTU 14) – all experienced campaigners in both raceboard and olympic classes.
National formula champion, Janis Preiss (LAT 23) may offer a stern challenge despite his lack of recent experience in the class.
You can follow the action daily, as it happens, via the Twitter blog.
Full reports, results and photo gallery will be published on both IWA and Raceboard websites.
