Girls Only Event in Canada

The PWA freestyle event in Canada, which has been organized for PWA girls only, has seen some good flatwater action, sailing in a very shallow lagoon under changing weather and wind conditions. The top three are well known names, the Moreno twins showing once more their exceptional talent and swiss legend Karin Jaggi taking third this time.


Going strong: Team Japan; Nayra Alonso ready to fly! Tiffany - the look

A surprise for the European competitors was the display of high scoring moves by the Japanese sailors Junko Nagoshi (J-11), finishing fourth, and Motoko Sato (J-0). Both pull off one handed spocks and are now working on the Flaka. Fellow japanese competitor Kana Suzuki, only sweet sixteen, impressed with clean spinloops in almost no wind - watch out for her!!!



Colette Guadagnino (V-711) had her comeback to the tour after a couple of years absence, but unfortunately could not fulfill the high expectations that were put in the former freestyle world champion. Pretty strong were the Spanish girls taking first, second, fifth (Silvia Alba, E-67) and sixth (Nayra Alonso, GC-4)! Tanja Emig (AUT-0) with her super-smooth style finished 6th ex aequo with Alonso, who now is third overall in freestyle 2004, and surely could have gone further up the ladder with some more luck in the seeding.
