Undefeated

You can’t imagine how happy I am. I won the competition in Sank Peter Ording. This year is been amazing for me. I’m winning all the events of the PKRA!

I’m now first of the ranking of the tour. This makes that in the competition siding I don’t have to face Karolina, Asia or Bruna before the final.
In the single elimination of SPO had a fairly easy way to reach the final. In Thailand, France or Cabarete had to eliminate Bruna or Karolina before the final.

The truth is that in the final of the single against Bruna, I was pretty nervous. We all know that Bruna rides very powerful, and although this year she is not getting good results, she can always make a good heat. I rode well, landing seven powerful maneuvers. She only made three handlepasses. It seems Bruna was more nervous than me!

In the double elimination I was more relaxed, more confident and with energy to go full. But I can tell you it was my worst double. My father, my mother and I were pretty stressed.

Minutes before my heat, a spontaneous kiter, got into the competition area. I tangled with him. Afterwards had my lines a bit broken. We had to untangle all in a hurry because my heat was about to begin.

I managed to land four handlepasses, and I just in the middle of the heat my line broke. I quickly change to a bigger kite that had prepared. Landed a pretty powerful frontmobe.

And last but not least, the next trick I tried, my leash went around the bar and my kite began to do kiteloops . This time I went through the public!

Such a stressful and crazy final. But I learnt you can never relax. You never know what could happend on a final.

With these five tricks that landed managed to keep the first position.

To celebrate my fifth victory I went to the podium with the t-shirt of the Spanish Soccer Team. First I was a bit scared, because there was atching all this German public. I thought, they could be angry and I throw me tomatoes!

When I went up I was more relaxed. The speaker of the event told me joking. Could you take the t-shirt of?! And I said: I can’t, sorry. We are the best in soccer and kite!

I’ve had a great time in Germany. Now back home and prepare for the next stop, Fuerteventura.

Here you can see the photo of the podium!
