Good news,
Wel lets start of with the good news, a couple of days ago i went to dee my doctor again , and he was verry happy with me. So ofcource i was happy to , because he told me i will be able to train again slowly!
So a day after i went to pick op my new YZ pro model board, stickerd it and i was ready to go.i took it out and it was even better than i was thinking will desgining, heheheh.
This morning i went to Canada , had a pretty long flight in front of me/us ofcource i was traveling with my girl. First i flew early from Amsterdam to Frankfurt , had to pay 100 euro for the boardbag ,Bummer; at Frankfurt we had to run because we didnt had to much time heheh. was because the girl from the chek in told us that we had to pick up the boardbags , but i was not! But in the end we just made it to the gate!
I am realy looking forward to see the island ,hopefully we will have some nice conditions and sweet spots, i will do some filming and foto,s
Finaly arived afther like 20 ours of traveling, on the aiport of charlottetown we cheked if we could rent a car but it was so expensive , that we didnt do it. We just took a cab to the hotel and fast we took some food and went to sleep.
Today we met Kevin and Andy Yates who where here already a day longer, and we cheked out the wind and we had nice session on 11m , but afther 30min the wind droped and didnt come back. Tomorow there will be a possibility that we get the tail of the huricane Hanna , is gone be funnnn!!
see yaaaaa
