Als einer von drei Stops der European Wakesurf Tour ging am Wochenende bereits zum zweiten Mal österreichs wichtigster Wakesurf-Event am Salmsee in Steyregg über die Bühne und viele, viele kamen – ob aktiv teilzunehmen oder um die Sonne zu genießen und die Surfer anzufeuern. Hier ein kleiner Nachbericht:
After
the last riders arrived and registrations were finalised, a short
riders meeting was held to inform all
competitors
about the general format of the contest and the rules of the CWSA
(competitive
wakesurf association) after which the competition was judged.
Right at
midday it was time to start with the qualification runs with 21
participants. Surfers from Austria, Germany and Switzerland battled each
other in a 1,5
minute-run to make it into the finals, which only the top five riders in
each category could reach (women skim, women surf, men skim, men surf).
Rund um den Contest
wurden dem Publikum kulinarische Köstlichkeiten geboten und man konnte sich mit
neuem (Surf)-Stuff regionaler Labels ausstatten. Musikalisch wurde
der Event vom Kings Crown Sound begleitet.
Next to the contest itself, spectators could grab
the one or the other culinary highlight or get some new (surf-)stuff from local
labels. The event was supported with fresh, chilling sounds from Kings Crown
Sound.
- all
riders and judges who made their way to Linz- all helping hands who made this event unforgettable
- the spectators for the support
- all sponsors for making this event possible!
Linz can’t wait for next year!
