Day 3 and 4 at the Reunion Wave Classic saw wild conditions. The swell got bigger and bigger and a lot of big waverides could be done. As well a lot of gear got broken in heavy breaks. The biggest waves had the height of two mast heights and the wind picked up to 30 – 35 knots. Two more rounds could be sailed at Ravine Blanche. Voget, Sifferlen, Traversa and Taboulet were the strongest sailors on the epic 4th day when sailing in extreme conditions. On the day before Mussolini, Juban, Fernandez and Voget as well were winning their heats. It looks like the German Pro Klaas Voget likes the extreme side of waverding, what he proofed in the Stormchase video already two years ago.
