The photo report of Ydwer van der Heide from the KPWT Sylt is online. There are some great action shots but also some nice event pictures with the internatiol riders.

Yesterday night I came back from Sylt, it was a pretty hectic journey. In the beginning the trip went pretty fast, but because of a lot of road-activities we got some delay. After the road-activities our right front tire exploded, so we needed to change that on the motorway. On the road again we got in a big traffic jam, because of a huge car accident, and needed to wait three hours. After all I had great week and hopefully next time a better result, than 17th at the Freestyle.
Thanks to Ydwer.com for all the pictures.
After a day without wind, the wind and the chop are back so the competition can go on!
Day 3:
Today the doubles started and I won the first heat, but lost my second from the French rider Tiger. Jerrie v.d. Kop was having a good day and climbed up to a 6th place, good job dude!
Mario Rodwald & Gisella Pulido are the Freestyle winners.
Day 4:
The wave master can go on the water today and show there skills in the choppy waves of Sylt. I’m going to ride a little bit more south of the event on a cleaner spot with some other riders.
Together with Ydwer I drove to Sylt, Germany to compete in the first KPWT stop of the year. After a 10 hour drive we arrived at the beach, with already some stands and event tents.
Day 1:
I passed the qualifiers and could enter the Main Event. The drawing decided that I’m up against Antoine Auriol and unfortunately I lost… I still had a pretty OK heat and landed my Blind Judge, Back to Blind, Slim Chance, Kiteloop Handle Pass, Kiteloop Slim Chance and a big board off. Winners of the singles are Mario Rodwald and Gisella Pulido.
Day 2:
No wind today, but enough for course racing, time to relax and eat some Bratwurst!
Here are some pictures from the trip, thanks to Ydwer.com.
