		RSX North American Championships Happy New Year! This year's season started with the RSX North American Championships in Miami. We had a total of 9 races, 3 races a day for 3 days. It was my first time on the board after the holidays and it was great to be back on the water again. We had great conditions for all days ranging from 13-17 knots, a relatively windy regatta for Miami. We had a great turnout for the girls fleet with 24 boards, including many top European girls. I was using this regatta as a warm-up to next week's Miami Olympic Classes Regattta, trying to work on my starting techniques with BC Sailing coach Kevin Black. Although I couldn't callall my starts stellar, I did get off the line and had some very solid finishes. I finished 9th overall and was the first North American woman! Monday starts the Miami OCR, a Grade 1 regatta that many more Europeans will attend! Till then, Nikola (www.nikolagirke.com) posted by editors at 1/19/2007 10:26:00 AM
