Victor Fernandez Lopez ist neuer Weltmeister im Wellenreiten. Der Spanier wurde am Mittwoch beim Mercedes-Benz Windsurf World Cup Sylt Dritter in der Waveriding-Konkurrenz. Das reichte dem 34-Jährigen, um seinen dritten WM-Titel einzufahren. „Man wusste bei den schwierigen und wechselnden Bedingungen nie, welches Material man nehmen musste. Ich bin glücklich, dass der dritte Patz für den Titel gereicht hat. Jetzt werde ich ein paar Tage lang feiern“, freute sich der neue Waveriding-Champion. Sieger auf Sylt wurde Thomas Traversa, der sich im Finale gegen den Venezolaner Ricardo Campello durchsetzte. „Dieser Sieg bei dem größten Windsurf-Event der Welt und einem der schwierigsten Reviere überhaupt, ist etwas ganz Besonderes. Ich schwebe auf Wolke sieben“, sagte der Franzose nach seinem Triumph am Brandenburger Strand.

Ricardo Campello gewinnt vor Thomas Traversa F3 die Single Elimination der PWA World Tour Windsurfing. ?? Der blanke Hans on fire. ?

Summer is maybe over, but one more week of fun, sun and fair racing with friends still ahead. Ready, steady, see you in Varkiza !!!

(Sylt, 29.09.2018). Nach dem spektakulären Auftakt der Wellenreiter am Freitag erlebten die Zuschauer am Samstag rasante Rennen beim Mercedes-Benz Windsurf World Cup. Um 10:30 Uhr wurden die ersten Wettfahrten in der noch jungen Racing-Disziplin Foil gestartet, bei der geringe Windstärken ausreichen, um hohe Geschwindigkeiten zu erzielen. Dafür sorgt eine schwertartige Verlängerung unter dem Board, die das gesamte Brett schon bei niedrigem Tempo aus dem Wasser hebt, wodurch der Reibungswiderstand minimiert wird. So sahen die Besucher am Samstagvormittag ein Fahrerfeld, das bei nur vier Beaufort mit mehr als 50 Kilometern pro Stunde über die Nordsee vor Weserland jagte. Schnellster Foiler war der Italiener Matteo Iachino, der beide Wettfahrten gewann und die Gesamtwertung vor Antoine Albeau aus Frankreich anführt. Als bester Deutscher erreichte Malte Reuscher beide Endläufe und liegt insgesamt auf Platz zwölf. Gunnar Asmussen, Sebastian Kördel und Nico Prien konnten sich für ein Finale qualifizieren und liegen auf den Rängen 19, 20 und 26. Am Mittag war bei bis zu sechs Windstärken die Zeit der Slalomfahrer gekommen. Mit knapp 70 Stundenkilometern schossen die Fahrer in der Formel 1 des Windsurfens über fast zwei Meter hohe Wellen und boten den zahlreichen Zuschauern rassigen Rennsport am Brandenburger Strand. Nach zwei Regatten liegt Pierre Mortefon in Führung vor seinem Landsmann Antoine Albeau. Schnellster Deutscher war auch hier Malte Reuscher.

We have a Winner... and a pretty dominant one at that!!! Check out the event wrap up/Highlights for the slalom! The World title race is on a knife edge... Sylt should be pretty tense!!! FYI: There is a Big Freestyle film coming soon and a Day in the life of a PWA Racer.... as we follow Jordy Vonk for a day! PWA report: Slalom Antoine Albeau (RRD / NeilPryde) extends his remarkable record in Fuerteventura - winning every year here since 2006 except 2012 - with one of his most dominant performances in recent years as the 24-time world champion won all 4 eliminations completed. You have to go back to Alacati in 2012 for the last time someone won 4 consecutive eliminations and that man was Albeau again - which perhaps shows you how great of a feat that it is to have repeated it. Matteo Iachino (Starboard / Severne / Shamal Sunglasses) was the most recent sailor to have come close to doing the same when he won the opening 3 races during the 2016 Sylt PWA Grand Slam, before finishing 2nd in the 4th elimination. Victory here sees Albeau level things up with Matteo Iachino on 40,700 points with one event to go, but the Italian still leads the title race having recorded better results in 3 out of the 5 events, but ultimately it looks like it will come down to a straight fight between the two heavyweights in the final battle of the season in Sylt, Germany, 28th September - 7th October. Iachino, qualified for every Winners’ Final, but a bit of bad luck and one mistake on the opening day saw him have to settle for a 4th and an 8th. The 2016 world champion then bounced back with two solid seconds but couldn’t deny Albeau, but he should be happy enough leaving with a second place here given Albeau’s killer record. For the 4th time this season - Pierre Mortefon (Fanatic / Duotone / Chopper Fins) - completes the podium to cement his place on the overall podium, in a result which means the ‘Big Top 3’ have also completed the top 3 in 4 out of the 5 events this season. The title probably looks out of the question for Mortefon this season unless Albeau and Iachino both have shockers in Sylt, but he’s been right at top of his game again over the last 5 days with a 2nd, 3rd and 2x 4th’s from 4 eliminations. Pascal Toselli (JP / Loftsails / Chopper Fins) remains in 4th in the overall rankings but discards the result here in Fuerteventura after finishing outside the top 10 for the first time this season. Toselli’s result here combined with Jordy Vonk (Fanatic / Duotone) recording his best ever result in Fuerte - 4th - and also his best result of the season sees the Flying Dutchman close to within 100 points of the Frenchman, while Julien Quentel (Patrik / Avanti) is just a further 100 points back in 6th overall after also finishing 6th here. Ross Williams (Tabou / GA Sails / Shamal Sunglasses) remains 7th in the overall rankings after recording his best result of the season - 5th. The Brit recovered well from a quarterfinal exit in the first race with an 11th, 5th and then a 3rd, but the wind then ran out of steam to give him a shot of recording a 4th podium finish in a row here. Meanwhile, Cyril Moussilmani (RRD / Severne) and Finian Maynard (I-99) move into the overall top 10 after 8th and 10th place finishes respectively, while Mateus Isaac’s (JP / NeilPryde) 12th place is enough to see the Brazilian keep his spot the overall top 10 - 10th. Elsewhere, Arnon Dagan (RRD / NeilPryde) records his first top 10 finish - 7th - since the opening event of the year, while Antoine Questel (Starboard / S2Maui) follows up his first top 10 of the season in Portugal with a 9th place here - showing the form that he showed last year, while Alexandre Cousin (Patrik / GA Sails / Chopper Fins) also earns his best result of the season - 11th. Ethan Westera (Tabou / GA Sails) also deserves a mention. The 20-year-old suffered a potentially career-threatening injury here this time last year, but showed he’s back somewhere close to his best by claiming 13th place here - qualifying for the top 16 in 3 out of the 4 races completed.

(Sylt, 28.09.2018). Bei Sonnenschein und knapp fünf Windstärken eröffneten die Waverider am Freitag um 13 Uhr die Wettkämpfe beim Mercedes-Benz Windsurf World Cup Sylt. Und gleich in der ersten Runde gab es faustdicke Überraschungen. Zunächst verlor der Weltranglistenvierte Marcilio „Brawzinho“ Browne aus Brasilien völlig unerwartet gegen den Franzosen Antony Ruenes. Danach ereilte Philip Köster das gleiche Schicksal. Der viermalige Weltmeister kam als vergleichsweise schwerer Fahrer mit dem unkonstanten Wind am Brandenburger Strand nicht zurecht und musste sich in seinem Auftakt-Heat dem Franzosen Julien Quentel geschlagen geben. Bei den Damen herrschte dagegen eitel Sonnenschein. Zunächst zog Lina Erpenstein aus Kiel nach einer souveränen Vorstellung gegen die Niederländerin Maaike Huvermann in das Halbfinale ein. Kurze Zeit später machte ihr die Kielerin Steffi Wahl dieses Kunststück nach und bezwang die starke Polin Justyna Sniady sicher. „Die Bedingungen waren schwierig, aber ich habe mich vor allem in der Welle unglaublich wohl gefühlt“, so Wahl nach ihrer tollen Leistung. Lina Erpenstein: „Ich konnte trotz der wechselnden Winde meine Moves voll durchziehen. Jetzt ist vor diesem tollen Publikum ein Podiumsplatz möglich.“

"Die Faszination von Sylt ist, dass dieses Event die Leute rauszieht - sie wollen das auch erleben - sie wollen das auch direkt abbekommen", sagt Klaas Voget, der 2000 zum ersten mal beim PWA Worldcup auf Sylt startete, über den Mercedes-Benz Windsurf World Cup Sylt.

Nachdem die Sommerpause von windlosen Wochenenden geprägt wurde, boten sich vergangenes Wochenende ideale Bedingungen um das zweite German Freestyle Battle der Saison in Lemkenhafen auf Fehmarn auszutragen. Die knapp über 30 Rider trafen sich am Samstagmorgen bei bestem Wind und Sonnenschein am Spot und gegen 11:00 wurde die Hinrunde des Wettkampfes gestartet. Die Windverhältnisse an diesem Tag waren sehr durchmischt, in einigen Regenfronten fegte der Wind mit guten 30 Knoten über das Wasser. Mit dem letzten Tageslicht wurde die Double Elimination beendet und Niclas Nebelung geht als Sieger des Battles in Lemkenhafen hervor.

Day 2 – Action Highlights… PWA Fuerteventura 2018… Loooooong day at the office today... Mens Finals, Women Finals, youth and Juniors and 3 rounds of the Mens Double!!!!

Super comfortable to ride, super easy to control, super for all kinds of gybes (intermediate, advanced, race), super fast - Super Ride: this new generation of freeride boards sits right between the Magic Ride and Super Sport. They provide a totally new windsurfing experience as they jump on the plane early, get seriously fast and at the same time are super comfortable and easy to ride. It‘s amazing how easy it is to get super fast on them. Also, they never ever get out of control even when fully powered up. They are a “must have” for every ambitious freerider. More: https://jp-australia.com/2019/products/boards/2019-super-ride/

Used by most sailors on the PWA TOUR, the Mono-Button Mast Base and Extension System (MXT) has been designed to offer a secure, heavy duty connection and ease of operation. The MXT Extensions are fully integrated with stainless steel cleat/pulley bottom assemblies offering the best weight to stiffness ratio and creating very light but also very strong extensions. The weight has been reduced by eliminating all unnecessary plastic while increasing the cross- section of stainless steel parts for increased strength.This part can now withstand over 900kg of downhaul load twice as much as used on the largest racing sails. The special geometry with tilt bottom pulley makes perfect sail pulley/rope alignment. This allows the sail to be downhauled all the way down (block-to-block) and it reduces downhauling friction.

The legendary Combat stands out as the sail of choice for any wave sailing conditions. No matter which spot, from side-offshore winds and perfect peeling waves to huge onshore white waters, the Combat will never disappoint. Designed for dynamic and aggressive sailors, the Combat delivers low end power when you need it, for as long as you want it. Light for jumping, stable for predictability, and strong for endurance. Combat is equipped to deal with whatever, whenever, and whoever. www.neilpryde.com

The Fly is a truly specialized wave-riding sail. The three-batten compact design combined with the Powerfuse construction and PVC / Dacron lower luff area makes for the lightest, most neutral sail in our range. It totally depowers on the wave and offers great sail control in gusty conditions, allowing you to fully focus on your surfing. Fast, light, soft feeling, compact, heavy duty construction and maneuverable, the Fly provides aggressive rail-riding turns and velocity down the line. Pure surf.

The Wizard is the most accomplished freestyle sail there is, working perfectly for every level, whether you are going for your first spocks or double power moves. Delivering explosive acceleration, direct drive and insane lift, the Wizard planes instantly while depowers on-demand providing silky smooth handling. Early planing, stability and balanced feel during tricks are the key requirements for a freestyle sail and the Wizard has it all. Plenty of air and more pop than ever. www.neilpryde.com

With its outline coming straight from the RS:RACING development program, the SPEEDSTER is an explosive performance Freeride Sport sail. More user friendly than a cambered sail (easier to rig, uphaul and jibe).The Speedster is more balanced, it offers greater performance and wind range than a classic freeride sail. The tubular battens allow the center of effort to remain in place while the profile delivers an exhilarating combination of performance, speed and acceleration. Slalom without cambers. https://www.neilpryde.com/

The V8 is a freerace sail that offers incredible acceleration with each gust as well as from non-planing conditions. True race sail performance combined with a narrower sleeve adding better water drainage. 7 battens and twin Integracams to achieve great handling and light feel. Extreme early planning, soft rotation, easier jibing, wide wind range, great upwind and top end control, the V8 has the extra power and drive needed to accelerate and go fast on high performance boards. The sail configuration makes it considerably lighter in maneuvers, less physical and easier to downhaul than pure race sails. Slalom for everyone. www.neilpryde.com
