After a disappointing start, the weather improved on day two to a windy 25 knots at Playa Las Cucharas in Costa Teguise, Lanzarote. There has been a great crowd supporting the event from the beach and some amazing freestyle performances, the athletes have really had to emphasize their individual style, in order to wow the judges during this tough competition.

Day two

Day two finished with last years winners in top position.

Men: 1st Estredo Jose, 2nd Thode Kiri, 3rd Browne Marcillo, 4th Otaegui Antxon

The Thode and Estredo final on day two was a flawless competition, with spectators and fellow competitors alike watching in awe as they executed moves with gravity-defying height, and composure. An air-flaka-diablo on the horn by Thode made the result even tighter, as the judges struggled to find flaw with either competitor. In the end, it was with a 0.5 difference that a relieved Estredo punched the sky in delight as he was pronounced winner of the first round. Tonky nailed the newest trick on the freestyle circuit – a forward loop-flaka!

Women: 1st Offringa Sarah-Quita, 2nd Treboux Laure, 3rd Nagoshi Junko, 4th Ruano Moreno Daida

The amazing standard that women’s windsurfing has reached caused an upset as the marveled Iballa Ruano Moreno lost out after an outstanding performance by Junko Nagoshi. Nagoshi claimed flakas on both tacks, as well as faultless spocks – enough to send her through to the quarterfinals. Meanwhile, both Laure Treboux and Daida Ruano Moreno (North Sails) fought hard to complete the Top 4. As the final approached, the Swiss freestyle specialist looked like only true challenger against the super-talented Offringa who had been exceptional all day. Miss Treboux landed a grubby and a clew first spock in succession, as Bonaire’s Offringa planed out of a puneta, backed up by a perfect cono.

Day Three

Day three offered some challenging conditions for the competitors, with high waves and strong winds, but produced some of the most exciting heats so far.

Men’s double elimination results: 1st Jose Estredo, 2nd Anxton Otaegui

The Lanzarote hero, Anxton Otaegui faces his toughest challenge of the day - World Champion Estredo.

Estredo opened with a burner and then a smooth eslider, landed a perfect air chacho followed by a switch chacho, an air flaka and finishes with a one handed shaka.

Women’s double elimination results: 1st Sarah Quita Offringa, 2nd Junko Nagoshi

In the women's final, Nagoshi faces Offringa, who lands a clean puneta, a clew first puneta by Nagoshi moves her on. Offringa shows her range with a flaka and a spock 540 as she heads back in to pull of a wonderful clew-first flaka.
