Rain in Pozo!!!
Bennie who went a view days infront of me already to Gran canaria had to pay only 60 euro’s for 6 bags after he done the online check in… Pretty okay priced..
So with this in my mind I step inside of the Amsterdam airport at 2.30 in the night.. My first step inside I straight away know that I wouldn’t be that lucky as him. It was fully packet. Happy hour… hole Holland was inside.
Everyone done the online line check in, so that was also now infants any more..
I tried to get the ride lady behind the desk but that went also wrong as the lady ‘said to me go to the manager for your gear oohh oohh’.. I was fucked as those people know all the tricks.. The guy asked me how many boards were in one off my backs “ uuhhh just two” I said…. I had to know better.. I had to open my bagand there the guy saw that I had 4 boards…au.. After allot of talking I mannish to just to pay for 3 bags..Oehff
Pozo now wind, as I arrived there in Pozo the wind was coming from the wrong direction..
Tine Slabe who never been there before , was informed that Pozo is the wind’s place on earth..
He could not really immense that, as we said ’ time will tell’..
The next day the wind was there and the waves picked up to 2m.. Men it was good.. It was 360* backside time ..
The day of signing in the forecast seems pretty light for the begin of the week so I also signed my in for the slalom as I had my gear with me for Fuerte. For the people who are really following everything knows that Point-7 smallest sail for this year is 6.2, but that sail I still had to receive after some trouble’s with sending.. So my smallest sail there was 6.7.. So I was really hoping on a miracle.. Heheheheheh..
I was against Campello in my first heat as we also were the opening off the competition, what is not that nice..
The wind was pretty light as I was on my 5.0 and 92L and still was struckle trough the light wind.
After two attempts of one Footed/handed backloop I couldn’t stop the light wind champ Ricardo..
In the double elimination I was sailing against the brother of Jonas Ceballos, who can jump as almost good as Jonas.. I was on my 4.5 and 82L all wave and I was was feeling well.. I get two really good wave ride’s were I scored 5.5 and 6.5 what is pretty good.. In the jumping I also passed him as some didn’t thought that.. With a front loop Tweaked push loop and a high backloop..
My next heat was against my buddy Boujmaa.. Boujmaa was already one month in Pozo and progress allot…
As the heat started the wind picked up were I still was sailing on my same gear.. I crashed a view small jumps as I couldn’t release the power in those small jumps.. I catch two good wave rides were I scored 5 and 6 for..
5 minutes left one my watch, so normally time enough to get 2 more jumps as made one front loop already..
I was trying to sail smart as I started at the rock up wind to have a good view over the hole corner of waves..
Opening the sail waiting on waves, all didn’t work to get good waves for jumping.. On they end I mannish to get one high backloop and one forward, but that was not enough against Boujmaa’s who had his best heat ever..
On the end I never touched the slalom gear as the wind went from strong to really strong and more stronger, 6.7 was out of mission…
I took on Monday a flight with one set of gear to the north of fuerte, were I sailed a view days just wave.
Now I’m in the south of Fuerte were the slalom PWA started.
The last view days I been testing my gear and I is feeling good.
Today we done or first elimination in pretty light conditions.. I got stocked at the started behind a wave and ended 5 seconds to late at the start.. After allot of pumping I mannish to get 7th what was just not enough to go trough..
Many thanks for the pictures to Mark who was shooting allot of pictures in Pozo.. Thanks
See you all out there.
