What a nice country !!! I love Poland . Fuck stop joking .. It’s was one more hugly day here in Swinjoucie with dark weather , a lot of rain and a fucking gusty bad wind . What a bad feeling after almost two months traveling in Africa .

I woke up this morning with the noise of strong rain on my van and went to the beach . The freestyle was on and they finished the single élimination . Just after we went on 4 races , really funny , but really shorts… So no way for any mistakes … and i did a lot of mistakes lol … Using my race board after 2 months off was like , you know , skiing after one years off . I crashed a lot , made bad tactical choice, chosse the bad kite … to resume i was too bad. I don’t know exactly my ranking for the moment but i know that i have to do better tomorrow ;)

Offshore gusty wind ( from 0 knots to 30 knots) , rain etc …

he organisation tried to do the freestyle single elimination … they managed to do two rounds for the guys . Even if it was so hugly ( guys were really unpowered most of the time) it’s a good thing tht they managed it ,beacuase finally forecasts are not so good for next days …

Today, we’ll probably have racing … I’m crossing my finger … I’m actually 8th in overall , and i have chances to reach the 5 or 6 position in the European ranking if we run some courses …
