Lanzarote Super-X - race 1 & 2 The stage was set as the PWAs third visit to Lanzarote to decide the 2006 Super-X world championship titles got underway today. A positive forecast for the weeks conditions, got the event centre buzzing, as the mens and womens fleets prepared their equipment for action. Race One Race one was scheduled to get underway at 12:30. A 5-leg course was set with long reaches, and 3 inflatable sausage jumps. First up was ladies heat one, followed by the mens qualifying heats, and winners and losers finals. Course conditions were reasonable with most sailors on sails sizes around 7.0sqm.  photos: PWA/Alex Williams Ladies heat one saw a great battle between Karin Jaggi (Z-14, F2/North Sails) and Daida Moreno (E-64, Mistral/North Sails) and Iballa Moreno (E-63, Mistral/North Sails). It was tight all the way round between Karin and Daida, with Karin leading from the start. The heat finished dramatically with Karin falling at the 4th mark allowing Daida to sneak through in first followed by Iballa then Karin. In heat two, Iballa Moreno showed everyone else how to start, and then led to the first mark, before winning by a country mile. Karin Jaggi came in second. The final heat was exciting. Karin Jaggi again led from the start and passed mark one in the lead. However Daida and Iballa caught up as the fleet bunched together during their forward loops. Daidas acceleration from there onwards allowed her take Karin by mark 3 and finish first, with Karin in second and Junko Nagoshi (J-11 F2 /Simmer Sails) third. Race Two: The ladies final started perfectly for Junko Nagoshi who sped into mark one in the lead as a pile-up on the first sausage jump slowed most of the fleet. Daida Moreno was in second and pressurized Junko successfully into crashing her forward loop. Daida won and Junko recovered well to finish second with Astrid Muldoon (F-002 JP /NeilPryde) in third.
