6th time lucky

Monday, September 29th, 2008

After 6 PKRA events here in Brazil I finally manage to take a win.
The day tuned out to be really good and not too stressed for me, Kevin got taken back to 3rd by the young Brazilian ripper De Silva, which has left me in a strong position for the championship.
I saw this kid in Cumbuco lagoon 2 years back killing it and to see his standard now is amazing, I came up against him in the final but unfortunately he crashed his kite for a while, I still had a good heat lit on my 9 and was able to take home the win straight away.
I am now off to Chile for the final event, hope to make it 5.

Brazil

Friday, September 26th, 2008

My trip to Brazil this year had been pretty good so far, I arrived in Fortaleza a few days before the event and stayed with some friends south of the city at pro kite brasil it was really relaxed and good conditions.

After I headed up to the event which was a 7-8 hour drive in the same spot as last year.

Yesterday was the 2nd day and I managed to win the singles, my heat was insane, better than Canada, I pretty much done everything I could, 4 switch/regular, 4 double pass’ grabbed NIS and KGB plus a bit more.
Hope I can keep it up.

Heat of the year

Friday, September 12th, 2008

Today I had one of the best heats I have done all season, it was up against Kevin to defend 1st place and was a crucial event for the championship.

The conditions were pretty good, I had perfect power on my 11 and the water was fairly flat.

In the heat I did 4 regular and switch; low mobe, front blind mobe, back - blind and slim all basically as good as my regular. I also done KGB Melon grab, NIS indy, Shifty 3, I chucked in a mobe - wrapped just for points and landed a front mobe - blind and a text book Slim 7, I crashed a Blind Judge 5 on the buzzer but came in and packed up knowing I had done enough.

1st Canada

Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

Just got the results in from the singles here in Canada, had an amazing heat and came off confident I had done it. Had Power, like 5 switch and doubles, basically riding for the criteria.

The place ain’t too bad, we had to move to a different spot today as it was the only place with wind, bit cold but pretty stoked to be in this position.

Lets hope I can keep it this time.
