Always a great event here on Bonaire.
It's because's Elvis his daughter's birthday, this year for the 15th time.
Many kids, but also adults showed up for the event and so over 30 people took part. With big names as : Taty Frans, Kiri Thode, Choco Frans, Amado Vrieswijk and Bjorn Saragoza, but also Chepi, Jurgen Saragoza, Denley, Yorman, Xemion and Jean Paul.
The event is mainly about having fun, but of course special in the older groups they want to show who is the fastest too :-)
We had three diffrent courses for all levels.
- Beginners
- Boys/ girls
- Men/ women
The first start i did some realy stuppid things, so past the startline as last person. Ready to catch up the rest, I managed to pass about 4 people, but made again a mistake as not finishing over the correct line.
Oke next start should go better and so I did, not as good as the week before but at least not in the back, all my jibes went oke. I was back on my "home" water and felt so nice to compete against all the slalom sailors we have now on Bonaire.
Each reach I was getting better and better. So At the end I'm oke with my inprovement the last week and now I feel ready for the Pro kids.
