Today saw the freestyle and wave sailors hit the water as the action continued in Sylt for the Third day. The morning saw relatively flat water and cross shore winds, which transformed Sylt into a freestyle arena as the double elimination began. After three hours of freestyle, the fleet has been narrowed down to the top eight men in the world. At this point the decision was made to change disciplines as the waves continued to grow in size enabling the completion of the women’s wave single elimination and the start of the men’s double elimination. The real news of today though belongs to Iballa Ruano Moreno (Starboard / Severne), who secured the 2012 PWA Wave World Championship title and also won the women’s single elimination.
The mens double elimination was called for the day due to light winds. Check back tomorrow as the action continues.
