Last week in Spain was really exciting for me. We came to Santa Pola with other Polish straight from RSX Olympic Class Worlds which were in Weymouth.
The 2009 Worlds marked the end of a decade for formula windsurfing.
A cliff hanger week of racing at the Formula Windsurfing World Championships.

18:40 | Never let it be said it does not blow in santa pola!
Apart from the start of race 6 for men - todays races were held in 25>30knots. The onshore direction ensured conditions challenged even the most experienced riders. Tomorrows forecast promises to offer good racing, perhaps not so close to the limit as today.
21:31 | correction - a change in 3rd position overall. A great win today for Agnieszka Pietrasik, POL19, moves her into a podium position.
18:55 | After only one race today, for women, there is no change in the overall positions.
Top 3 remain - POL111, AUS911, and FRA59. For the first day since we arrived the wind did not really materialise. The forecast looks promising for tomorrow - we hope to get back on schedule with the race programme.
18:47 | There is another storm approaching - the day started with a storm and ends with a storm; and in between plenty of drama on the race course, especially for the mens fleet. Come back soon to check provisional results after 5 races
