9th Place Flymasters Holland

The last round of the European tour was held on the 25th and 26 of October, on the big sandy beach of Ijmuiden, with 50+ competitors in pro mens freestyle. Things were going to be mega!! Arriving on the Friday, we headed to the beach that evening to get some practice in and also to meet up with Roy van Baarsen and Marijn Tijhof from PeterLynn. We decide to go for a practice and get some photos, with my good friend Jeroen Pigmans showing up to get this kite session rocking, we rode untill it was dark!. 

The Saturday. 

First day of the event, with all the PeterLynn team there too, we headed to the beach to set up the tent, flags and kites of course. The wind was light, so it was decided by the judges that they would run the juniors freestyle and the Pro mens buggying first. So the day was spent hanging out with the Peterlynn team, kiting, filming and also putting on the most amazing BBQ for everyone. 

The Sunday. 

Competition day!!  I managed to win my first heat with a mix of tricks such as Invert 720s, 360board offs, board off varials, raleys and spins to blind. My second heat was against Emmanuel Norman, I did some good tricks, invert 720s, 360 board of varial, pop shuvits, board off varial to blind etc.. but Emmanuel also did some amazing tricks and beat me with his 720 handle pass. This gave me 9th in this event and I finished the year with 12th place overall, super happy with this having missed the German event.
