Maria Morales and Peter Gobisch crowned

15/09/2022

If you pulled up at the former fish powder factory in Hanstholm you could see some smooth sailing today. Due to the drop in the wind, Mother Nature encouraged the sailors to show us some wave riding.

The sun also arrived for the show. Expert, Mads Bjørnå, explained that the tactic of the day was to wait for the big sets and not to force it too much. But if you decided to go for a smaller wave, you had to pull a rabbit out from the hat to impress the judges. No easy task unless you were the future of the sport. Today was another display of dominance from Maria Morales who proved why she is the best. She finished numero uno in the women’s Under 20. But the young Sol Degrieck was certainly putting up a fight. She sailed all the way to 3rd place. Phenomenal sailing. An solid and undoubtedly very inspiring surfer today was Isabel Trivino. She controlled the ocean like she was the daughter of Nord. Keep threading the needle. She nailed the 2nd place.

Javier Escribano was a true force of nature today in Men’s Under 15. Yesterday he got stuck on the bottom of the bracket, but today he redeemed himself and sailed all the way to get his bronze on. And that was not due to the sun. The battle for silver and gold was fought between Peter Gobisch and Arthur Van den Brande. Rumor has it that Arthur misselected a wave which Peter Gobisch was already riding, that ruined Arthur’s best score and Peter sealed the deal in the 2nd final heat, which meant that Peter Gobisch shouldn’t dig more for gold. Peter grabbed first place. Arthur Van den Brande had to accept that he had to eat with silverware tonight. He ended 2nd.
It was a nice and warm summer day, says Mads Bjørnå. See you Thursdayfor the last bit of the Men’s Under 17 and Under 20 ordinary competition. The winds will pick up again and we expect to reach 20 m/s. Be there or be triangular.
