Well so today we finally got some wind for the Doubles. Rocky Chatwell, who I bet in the Single Elimination made it all the way up to me again. I ride my 9m, was super powered and went with lots and lots of speed for the tricks, I did some switch and the usual stuff with good landings and powered only my kite made it to 12 o clock after many take-offs so in the end I was dangling a bit which made me lose with a 3:2 Decision. Still Im more than satisfied with the 9th place here, the conditions werent easy and the level was good.You gotta check the vids on extremeelements.tv or youtube.com/extremeelementstvDirect Links:Double EliminationSingle Elimination

I arrived in St. Peter Ording on Friday and it wasn’t windy until Tuesday. Tuesday we had the skippers-metting at 8.30am , super early! First they did the trials which took less then 1 hour, then we started the Single Eliminations. The wind was light in the morning but increased throughout the day. I pumped up all my kites but chose my 8m Impact SL, cause thats what I’m most used to and cause it was gusty and windy.In the first heat I was against Rocky Chatwell from USA who’s currently under the Top12. He was on his 7 Fuel and throwing some big kiteloops, I did good stuff with some power and advanced.Then I went against Michael Schitzhofer from Austria and we both had a regular heat, he did more but according to the judges I had more power in my tricks so I advanced to the third round where Mr. 3x and soon 4x Worldchampion stopped my run.So I’m super satisfied with the result and I really hope to get some wind for the doubles!

The Trip to Fuerte started with lost gear. Then it went on with Aaron in the first round of the Singles. Then, the next day, my harness, the only gear that arrived cause it was in my clothing bag was stolen. Today in the doubles I had to compete with the gear of others again. I did one trick, missed the next trick and the kite flew away. So I’m out, 17th in Fuerte…
