It s on at Mondello

06/10/2022

With the first tests this afternoon supported by east winds, the world championship of the windsurfer class, organized by the Albaria club on the 40th anniversary of its foundation, got underway in Mondello. In the water 350 competitors from 25 nations. Three races completed in the medium-heavy and heavy categories. Two tests instead for the light and medium light, for the under 19 and for women.

Predictions respected in all categories. Among the lighters in the lead is Marco Casagrande, among the medium-light, Nicola Campus, among the medium-heavy Alessandro Alberti and among the heavy, Riccardo Giordano. The Marsala Lauria Linares leads the women’s ranking and the young Blasco Aronica is leading the under 15.
Very regretted and disappointed the Palermo Marco Casagrande spearhead of the club Albaria. After winning the first two trials among the light, he was deprived of the third success just 30 meters from the finish, when the jury canceled the test for the wind. “Having three wins in my pocket would have given me more confidence and confidence for the rest of the championship. But I’ll get over it. Australians and French present themselves as the most fearsome competitors”, the words at the end of the race of the home surfer.
Thursday at 10.30, wind permitting, on the calendar three more races of the course-race and possibly also the slalom races.
