Provisional Event Calendar 2010 PDF Print E-mail
Monday, 25 January 2010

We have published a provisional event calendar for 2010, you can check it at http://www.speedworldcup.com/events-2010.html.

Most of the events are still to be confirmed due to the difficult economical situation, but we are doing our best to confirm them as soon as possible.

Many events in 2010 will be held with the use of GPS timing devices, which enables us to be more flexible on course setting and really go for the good conditions.

The world championships for both Windsurfers and Kiteboarders will be held on Fuerteventura from 28.07.-02.08.2010.

 
2010 Rulebooks published PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 19 January 2010

There have been only a few small amendmends for the 2010 rulebooks.

For the windsurfers, the points awarded depend mainly on the price money now, with some small addition given for continentals, worlds, and if there is provisional timing available. The spread between national event and world championship events has become larger, to give more importance to the world events with the top comptitors attending.

Only the best three events of each competitors will count towards the overall world cup ranking, constituting the "Overall World Cup Winner"

For the kiteboarders, the same point system applies as for all other kiteboarding disciplines (depending on price money plus factors for continentals and worlds). Points score towards the speed ranking as well as for the overall kiteboarding ranking.

Events are expected to be held with the use of GPS mainly this year, as this makes it more attractive to organizers to hold events and enable us to offer you more events to take part in. Devices will be managed and supplied by us, we have around 120 devices ready for use. We will also see mre and more events to be held with windsurfers and kiteboarders together, which also attracts more organizers to offer us events.

The list of the 2010 events will be published soon, stay tuned !

Saturday, 07 November 2009

Wind on the very last day brought finally results for the speed windsurfers and kiteboarders in Dungarvan, Ireland. There was just enough time to complete a few fast runs along the speedstrip, with the fastest speed of the event set by Dave Williams (GBR, Best) at 44.2 knots over 250m.

Andrea Baldini (ITA) set the top speed in the windsurfers fleet with slightly over 40 knots, and Zara Davis (GBR) took victory in the womens fleet.

In the Kiteboarding fleet, Jason McCaffrey (GBR, Cabrinha) and Jemma Grobbelaar (GBR, Flexifoil) were on top after two completed rounds.

The event came to an end with the pricegiving ceremony held in the Dungarvan Harbour Yacht Club, and a party that is lasting until the late night.

A big thank you goes out to all sponsors, supporters and volunteers that made this event happen !

European Speed Championships Day 4 PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 05 November 2009

Another long day came to an end, without further results. After a drastical change in the weather forecast, the race committee was looking to set a proper course the whole day, but apart from a few violent gusts the wind never stabilized enough to start a race.

Tomorrow the action returns to the original event venue as the foracast is calling for southwesterly winds.
