Yesterday there we all have been waiting for wind….and then at midday it suddenly came. So I was in the first heat against Reno and was quite powered on my 12 Vegas. I started well of with all the normal passes, Frontmobe grab and then suddenly while doing a switch Slim my board broke…While going back to the beach I could do a L3 and I took my spare board. Was hard to get out again with the onshore wind but I could nail a Frontmobe blind and a double back pass. Actually the judjes decided it wasn´t enough - so I finished ninth.
Quite happy with the things I could still manage in my last seconds. Funniest trick did Andy Yates from Australia - removing the hat of an old lady with his lines while doing a Fmobe blind!In the final I saw the most perfect heat in my life - Aaron rocked everything … including Slim 7. Today we all rigged our kites for the best trick, but then the wind died again and now I am also quite happy to go home.
It´s pretty cool here, actually super nice air because of all the forest - but that gets boring after a while 
Since Sunday I am in Canada now. The journey was pretty exhausting, because our flight was delayed and then we had to stay 6 hours in Halifax beacause the shuttle didn´t arrive. So after staying 25 hours awake I realised that I won´t need my winter jacktet a mit 5,5 mm wetsuit - you can run around wearing a T-shirt.
All the rest here is pretty american and most of the people are really friendly. For example if you cross the road, the cars will stop 100m before you…
The wind was pretty light, but I had a good first heat doing double back pass, doubles S bend pass, switch…and in my second against Kevin I was also pretty happy. Unluckily the wind dropped so in the end we both couldn´t show everything.
Nearly got him with a 2/3 decission of the judjes.Yesterday it was more gusty but I could ride perfect on my 12, so I won my heat against Peter Tyskevich. After that we all went to a hypnotist show - which was suuuuper fun because Chris Tronolone did his own show there…
Today there was hardly no wind…but me and Schitzi went out and tried some tricks. If there is wind tomorrow I will be in one heat with my team mate Reno Romeu. Let´s see how it goes on!
