(machine translated in 2023) Master Games 2006, no wind. But nice weather and very cozy. Those Belgians do that well. Wind was bad, but by sailing tactically and borrowing a Kona I finished 5th.

(machine translated in 2023) Nice bobbing. Well, those short boards don't float for a meter. But by sailing well tactically and technically, I still finished 11 out of 26. From buoy 1->2 and 3->4 it was height walking, fortunately I soon realized that and I was 1 of the few who did not have to cross. |

(machine translated in 2023) Kite. That's a nice board. Plus a long board is much faster in low wind than anything else. So I finished 3rd super easily. |
