Day three..

September 15, 2009

21:31 | correction - a change in 3rd position overall. A great win today for Agnieszka Pietrasik, POL19, moves her into a podium position.

18:55 | After only one race today, for women, there is no change in the overall positions.
Top 3 remain - POL111, AUS911, and FRA59. For the first day since we arrived the wind did not really materialise. The forecast looks promising for tomorrow - we hope to get back on schedule with the race programme.

Day two...

September 14, 2009

18:47 | There is another storm approaching - the day started with a storm and ends with a storm; and in between plenty of drama on the race course, especially for the mens fleet. Come back soon to check provisional results after 5 races

Day one

September 14, 2009

19:16 | We were unlucky not to get a third race today and validate the championship on the first day. However this was definately a masterful display from reigning world champion , Wojtek Brzozowski, POL10- two bullets in convincing style. For sure he is not going to relinquish the title easily. In the womens fleet a win each for Marta Hlavaty (POL111) and Allison Shreeve (AUS911)

September 12, 2009

Ceri reports..

September 12, 2009

22:43 | live reports will start to flow from tomorrow morning. Although it is registration day for the Worlds , it is also the final racing day of the spanish championships. The organisers have done a fantastic job creating an event village - great facilities for the competitors; a viewing stand for spectators to watch the action, right at the shoreline; commentary from the control tower & live transmission to a big screen on the main stage. Lots of background activity to keep the public interested.
