Nechranická buchta
Každý ten čas známe a každý ho nejspíše neseme stejně nelibě. Konec srpna je prostě pruda. Školní rok za dveřmi, šéfové se vracejí z dovolených, zkrátka začíná opět ta horší a ještě k tomu delší část roku, kdy jsme nuceni pracovat-studovat naplno. Jenže serfař závodu chtivý má nemalou útěchu v podobě již tradičního a tradičně velmi kvalitně připraveného závodu… Trefa! Je to Nechranická buchta.

The 2008 Pegasus Airlines Alaͧati PWA World Cup – Day Four
The 2008 Pegasus Airlines Alaçati PWA World Cup – Day Four
Antoine Albeau wins two out of the day's three races as he mounts his attack
on event leader, Bjorn Dunkerbeck. In the women's fleet, Valerie Ghibaudo
extends her event lead with two more race wins, taking her tally to six wins
out of eight races.
Starting the day with victory in race six, Antoine Albeau (Starboard,
NeilPryde) sent event leader, Bjorn Dunkerbeck (T1, North) a clear message
of his intentions for the remainder of the event. Dunkerbeck could only
reply with second position in the losers final after failing to qualify for
the final the previous day.
Grabbing the remaining podium positions in the race six final were Arnon
Dagan (Fanatic, Gaastra) in second, and Robby Swift (JP, NeilPryde) in
third. Swift commented, 'That was one of the best races of my life, I kept
it together and managed to hold off Finian to take third. I'm really happy
with that result!'
In the women's race six final, Valerie Ghibaudo (Tabou, The Loft) made an
uncharacteristic error when she fell gybing, leaving the door wide open for
Karin Jaggi (F2, North) to take the victory, accompanied by Verena Fauster
(F2, Gaastra) in second and Marta Hlavaty (MauiSails) in third. Ghibaudo had
to make do with last, but luckily she can discard the result thanks to an
impressively consistent string of top-notch results.
Moving on to race seven, Ben Van Der Steen (Exocet, Simmer) didn't help his
cause with a premature start in his quarterfinal heat. He was joined by
fellow false starters Julien Quentel (Starboard, NeilPryde) and Alberto
Menegatti (Starboard).
In the semi finals, local Bora Kozanoglu (Starboard) gave the crowd
something to cheer about when he beat Kevin Pritchard (Starboard, Gaastra,
MFC, Dakine) to the finish line to take victory. The pair took their places
in the race final alongside the likes of Finian Maynard (RRD, NeilPryde) and
Antoine Albeau (Starboard, NeilPryde) who came first and second respectively
in the second semi final.
The race final saw Dunkerbeck reply to Albeau's previous race win with a
victory of his own, far ahead of Albeau and Ross Williams (Tabou, Gaastra)
who were battling it out for second. Solid racing from Williams saw him hold
off the reigning World Champion to be rewarded with second place, leaving
Albeau to take third.
The men's losers final was won by Josh Angulo (MauiSails, Dakine), who had
to hold off advances from Gonzalo Costa Hoevel (Exocet, NeilPryde) and Cyril
Moussilmani (Fanatic, North) to secure the win.
In the women's race seven clash, Ghibaudo showed that her mishap in race six
was only a flash in the pan when she sailed to a convincing victory ahead of
her long time rival Jaggi. Chasing the pair down was local Lena Erdil (The
Loft), who sailed her best heat yet to post an impressive third place
finish.
In the women's losers final, Annika Gillgren (Severne) settled into her
usual position at the front of the fleet to take eleventh place overall for
race seven.
The final race of the day got underway in a gusty 12-18 knot wind. With the
sailors tired from the two previous races, and conditions getting evermore
testing, race eight was going to be a true test of the sailors tactical
knowledge and competition stamina.
Rising to the challenge, local speedster Bora Kozanoglu (Starboard) dialed
into the fluky wind to win his first two heats, and then advance from his
semi final to bag a spot in the final. Also showing form, Jimmy Diaz
(Starboard, North) and Angulo dominated their semi finals to advance into
the final.
When crunch time came, Albeau, Dunkerbeck and Williams shot down the first
reach. Progressing around mark three, Albeau sank his teeth in, giving him
clean air at the front of the pack. Needing no prompting, he motored to his
second win of the day, further closing the gap between him and event leader
Dunkerbeck. Not far behind, Dunkerbeck capped off another successful day in
second, and Williams ended his best day yet in third.
The women's final race followed a predictable path thanks to Ghibaudo's
outstanding consistency. She claimed her sixth race win, with Jaggi looking
hungry, but unable to overtake in second. Sixteen-year-old Alice Arutkin
(Starboard, North) claimed the final podium position, adding to her solid
run of results.
As it stands, Dunkerbeck clings onto the event lead just 0.7 points ahead of
Albeau, and Williams sits in third, 10.2 points behind Albeau.
In the women's fleet, Ghibaudo stands five points clear of her nearest
rival, Jaggi, with Fauster sitting seven points behind Jaggi in third.
Quote of the day
"If you don't qualify from your heats, you won't make the final." (Britain's
Dan Ellis at his philosophical best).
