The 2012 Bic Techno 293 World Championships have wrapped up on day 5, the numerous competitors had fun and raced fair! Present stars of Techno are future stars of windsurfing. Some of them won their first world title here in Medemblik.
Olympic superstars from past and present met the future stars of windsurfing in Medemblik on Day 4. Gold medalist Stephan van den Berg ( Los Angeles 1984 ) and Dorian van Rijsselberghe (London 2012) enjoyed the friendly atmosphere, signed a lot of autographs and made sure followers are on the right path.
Trying to capture all the action with 450 competitor on 3 courses, can be quite hard, but the producers of the 293 World Championships are trying. On the third day they asked the competitors to describe this place in 3 words.
Super Wednesday maybe did not deliver promised 26 knots of wind, but sun and fair racing conditions are responsible for many smiling faces. Check out the racing from Day 2.
