During the day of the single elimination the wind turned out to be up and down, it started off light then picked up until I needed a 7, it was poring down with rain and each heat had different winds due to the massive clouds that kept blasting past.
The singles went well for me, I was confident going into the heats, my first jump of the comp was one of the biggest Mega Loop’s I had done in a while. I kept my consistency through out the day and ended up against Kevin in the finals.
Everything was going well and I was having a really good heat, I had nailed quite a lot in the first 5 minutes and was ready to step it up to seal the deal, I went for a S-mobe but as I went around something was wrong, my leash had got wrapped around my other arm and I had no choice but to hold on and get dragged out of the box, if I had let go I probably would have seriously injured my arm so I figured it wasn’t worth the risk. In the last minute I got a couple more moves in but it wasn’t enough to take 1st.
In the double on the last day I came up against Rui, I had an amazing heat with lots of powered move, switch, and finished it off with a laid out KL Bosch Mobe.
In the next heat I came up against Kevin, I would have to beat him twice to win. In the first heat I though I did pretty well, Ruben had got knocked out the day before because of lack of switch so I thought I would go for that for the points, I managed all my normal moves plus 4 switch moves and a front mobe - blind. I thought I had done enough to get through to the second heat but unfortunately the decision went the other way.

After prize giving we drove straight back to Holland to drop Ruben back home, he managed to persuade us to stay a couple of days and it turned out to be epic, we went flow boarding a couple of times and also to the cable, we had loads of fun but Tuesday afternoon we decided it was time to get back home.

Right now I am back home, this weekend I am heading down the coast, the forecast looks good and it will be fun to hook up with everyone again.
Lets hope the wind arrives.

Here are some photo’s from the event, including the KL BoschMobe, thanks to Marc Pettersen for taking the pictures.
