In the morning all riders and organization met at Witsands Beach, which is at the Cape peninsula. 3 Slaloms were sailed in 15-20 knots of wind. Most sailors were on 7 and 7.6 sails.

Witsands is normally known as a wavesailing spot but delivered ok Slalom conditions. The big wave sets caused some problems for the sailors at the inside jibing mark, coming back to the beach or going out.

 

Result:
1. Ross Williams
2. Ben van der Steen
3. Alberto Menegatti

 

Tomorrow the wavesailors have their skippersmeeting at 8 o’clock at Big Bay and at 10 the Slalom sailors.
