World cup finished


The World cup is already over and with success for the team Vajda.
There were 2 World cup events this year, one was in Augsburg where Nina finished on the first place in woman category and Me on second place in men category. The next world cup was situated in Plattling. We arrived there at monday. The weather was bad and it was raining whole week. First it was still possible to kayak even the hole changed to the wave. But thursday the water rise so high that there wasn't possible to kayak anymore because everything was under water. There was the 4 alarm degree at the river Isar. Unfortunately the forecast for next days wasn't good too. The levels rise over the night again so the ICF committee and the organization team decided to cancel the event. Unfortunately the weather is an element so we couldn't do anything about that. So thanks to the organizer for the entertainment.
So now the World cup freestyle kayak 2010 is over and we have the final results taken just from the first event.

As you can clearly see that the composite boats are heading the top positions in the big events. The boats are just working awesome in the holes and waves! I love the feeling of the the stiffness and how easy it is to stick it in the waves.
I am really looking forward to leave for Lienz ( European championships ).
So see you there.
