2010 Almanarre, Hyeres, Women’s Slalom World Tour Final – Day Four
08.09.2010
A gusty
vent d’est teased a few of the women out onto the beautiful Mediterranean waters
today, but failed to increase to a sufficient level for official competition to
resume leaving the results unchanged.
With a
promising outlook the world’s fastest fleet of female windsurfers were at the
beach early preparing their gear for a day of tough racing. However, the wind
refused to play ball, forcing the fleet to endure another lengthy period on
hold, at times sitting in their wetsuits ready to hit the water at a moment’s
notice.
Race
director, Juan Antonio Aragon and his team made every effort to get the elite
racers out on the water with a course set as soon as the flags showed any sign
of wind in them, but it was just too gusty to allow for fair racing, and
therefore had to be cancelled early in the evening.
Tomorrow is certain to be a historical day on this
world-class beach with Valerie Arrighetti (Tabou, Loft, Mystic) just 24 hours
away from claiming her second event crown for the year at the first ever
all-women’s PWA event. And, Karin Jaggi (Patrik, Severne) only a day away from
taking home the 2010 world title which she’s already
secured.
