Extreme freestyle action underway in nuclear winds!
POZO, Wednesday July 10, 2002
”De Weerd was on fire today; somehow managing to pull off extremely technical moves in Pozo’s relentless winds which were blowing anywhere between 30-40knots. His repertoire included tweaked shuv-its, slick one handed spock 540’s and sizzling swayzies! On route to the final the Dutch freestyle specialist overcame challenges from the likes of Christian Dammers (Gaastra, AHD), Eric Girard (Starboard), Peter Volwater (F2, Arrows), Robby Swift (JP, Neil Pryde) and Victor Fernandez (Fanatic). Baker meanwhile had an equally tough battle to make it through to the final and took down Kristoffer Living (North/AHD) of Sweden, Martin Van Geenhoven (North, AHD), Matt Pritchard (AHD, Gaastra) and Ricardo Campello (JP, Neil Pryde). The action packed final saw Nik Baker open up the heat with a Crazy Pete and Remko replying with a huge contorted Shuv-it. As the heat progressed De Weerd edged ahead after Baker failed to nail his trademark clew first spock. With both sailors on 3.3m sails in what would best be described as survival conditions the level of sailing throughout the final was incredible.”
