Neil Pryde Baltic Cup 2009

The Neil Pryde Baltic cup is the most important windsurfing event on the Baltic Sea. Over the summer there have been three Neilpryde Baltic Cup competitions in series. First in Lithuania, then in Latvia, after that in Finland and now the final event in Estonia. 87 competitors from Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland and Russia registered for this event.

There was no doubt that Martin Ervin from Estonia (EST-202) would win the overall NeilPryde Baltic Cup 2009, as he had won all 3 previous competitions earlier this season. The NPC 2009 final eventin Estonia started with lack of wind and ended with mixed weather conditions.
Friday was supposed to be the first race day, but got closed in the evening with no races held.

On Saturday morning the weather was bit better but far from an ideal conditions for windsurfing. First start was cancelled due to turning and choppy wind. Luckily there was possibility to hold 2 races for Formulas and 2 for Raceboards before the rain ended the race day.
On Saturday both of Raceboard races was won by Juha Blinnikka (FIN-6) from Finland. Results from 2 Formula races left Martin Ervin (EST-202) and Toomas Mölder (EST-44) equal with 1 win and 1 second place in both’s records.
