- 23rd august: Canada World Cup!

- 14th august: Kiteboard Pro World Tour, Dunkerque.
After the KPWT in Santa Cruz (Portugal) we are in Dunkerque, France. The wind allowed us to do a course racing where I finished 6th, and a freestyle heat.
Unfortunately since the last two days it's not blowing, so we are in stand by...
End of next week we are going to Canada, for the 5th stage of the KPWT. Then we expect a trip from the "Auriol Brothers" in America...

- 6th july: 2nd stage of the Kiteboard Pro World Tour in Tarifa, Spain!
Wind, sun and lots of spectators during one week in Tarifa... Despite all these ingredients, I only finished 13th in freestyle. That's not so bad, because I'm always in the top 5 in the overall classification (freestyle / wave), and there are still lots of competitions before finishing 2009 season.
Big up to my friends Sophie Mathews and Miguel Willis who have been injured during the event...

- 19th june: First stage of the Kiteboard Pro World Tour 2009 in Sylt, Germany : "Welcome to the kings of the organization!"
This is the first time I arrived on a competition and some days before the event started, everything was ready: the tents on the beach, flags... They even make pay the entry to go on the beach!
So here we are in Sylt (North Sea) for the first stage of the Kiteboard Pro World Tour 2009(KPWT).
The wind is blowing since the first day, so we finished the freestyle and course racing. I was surprised by some young German riders, who kited really well on a very technical water. I finished 9th, eliminated in quarter finals by Vincent Tiger. Respect, because Vincent was injured in the face a few weeks ago.
Today, Wave Master is going on.
You can find all the NEWS of the competition HERE.
