Shewww.. man it is scary out there. The wind is so light, so so gusty, they keep running them but there is no wind. It is like a roll of the dice if one of the races gets all the way through. We tried about 20 heats today and all of them got canceled. At least they were canceling them. I had one ok start and the rest were terrible by me. On one of them I was no planing at all at the start, and it didnt look like I was going to get plaining at all either. It was really nerve racking because some of the guys got off the line and some didn't. I am on my 9.0 and my 85 wide 133 ISONIC and it is not enough. They have been trying really hard to get a result in but it just isn't happening. To top it off there is a lot of weed in the water as well as some smog in the air so at night we have quite a bit of pollution in the lungs from all the pumping. Besides those things, the event organizers are some of the best organizers we have on tour. Everyone has a room to themselves, which has amazing internet, we have breakfast, lunch and dinner provided for us, there are tents on the beach with board racks, plenty of them, lots of room on the beach, water gets passed out daily, it is just a shame that we dont have some good wind to give the organizers the show that they are looking for. Maybe tomorrow.

Nice sunset-shot! Ow and the second pic looks like some nice planing actually. Too bad of the wind. There has been no wind for two weeks in holland, the 25C + temperature wasn't too bad, though. But last weekend there was finally some planing action for me :) Nice report, keep it up! Greetings from holland

Went for a long drive to see my first PWA. Bugger about the wind not blowing! Dude, I didnt realise it was you, when having a chat on Jinha beach. That mo fooled me. I'm the one fan that made the trip! See you in Maui sometime, ...or NZ perhaps. Cheers Woody.

Hi Kevin. I am Mr. Han from Ulsan. Did you get home safe? I was disappointed with the wind. Anyway I was very happy to see you. In the next event, I hope evrything - wind, prize money, free baggage allowance, transportation, event for no wind day, etc. - will be better than this year. I will visit here often. See you.
