Maui Fin Co. - Maui Race 2008... light wind day!

A challenge for all the sailor...some gave up at middle of the contest.
At wave disivion...I got 2nd..... ulililili... and I win Eyal, I got 1st. place in one of the races.



At open womens, I used a 6.6 Speed Demo... I was proud of me to be able to handle it at jibes...
I tried my best. But I learn that it is important as well to work with the sail all the time, specially in light days...and I got exausted with the 6.6...at end bad choice, but amaising experience to know more about my resistence during all the races...start with 4th, after 5th..and at end finish with 6th...ops... Belongs to contest. Next time I hope to do better!

Tatiana did very good on the race with my 5.5 Speed Demo...Good job! 4th...

MAUI RACE 2008 - DAKINE CLASSIC!!!...and after a good freestyle day for relax from the tension of competition...hehehe

Hey everyone!!! One more contest...


Each event the Maui Race get more competidors which is amaising...everybody with high level which make more intersting.

A lot of excitment at beginging
... skippers meeting
...preparation

I and Taty getting the support of Eike from Kanahakai
...hoping making the right decidion about sizes to compete!

This time I get more organize: I didn't run any race wrong, I had a racing watch and also more challenge:
- STRONG WIND...with my light weight- 48kg ~109Pounds... the big girls make a hard life for me!... This time I learn that I cannot manage a big wave board...75l is alread to big for my body type.

Womens Race...unhappiness I broke the boom...
I push too much from the gear using a "kids" boom... just know I realize that even i am light rider... I am not a kid.

What I love in competition is that everytime I learn more about myself... It is a good thing to push your limits and try your best, because everyone trying hard the same way, which makes the game really cool!!!

I don't know about my results, because they just publish untill 3rd. place...but I had a great fun!!!

Eyal won the first place again...like this our home can have all collection of trofes from the MAUI RACE
and I am like a kid...loved the DAKINE trofe....so beautiful!
My friends came watch...the sweet Banaia always was running to me making my heart full of love even without the result that I wish.

Gathering with friends, food...DAKINE took care good of us!!!!

Good atmosphere... with Heidi, Tati's Mom... she is the best!!!



Soon is the next one... I curious about my performance and what king of coditions and circuit will be next time!

Thanks for of my sponsors: Hot Sails, Dakine, Bolsa atleta(BRASIL), KanahaKai and Upcountry gym(Izaak Tyrrell).

I had a good frrestyle session...so relax... "for me the bumerange is the Brian Talma move... It is so cool to ride with HOT SAIL...cool energy!"
I love freestyle...I wish we had a contest here on Maui...It is so much freedom, imagiation ...just fell the energy through the photos by Eyal Shelef

MAUI RACE 2008... 1o. competition... good training!!!


It was good to see the support from Kanahakai and Hot Sails group. Juan at begining who helps to rig at best way as well when I saw Ray and Sierra who came to what the contests from Hot Sails. At middle of the women races, Laura came to see I and Andrew.

During the meeting was cool to see the excitment of the "rental men"... so concentrated and enjoy to be part of it.

During the races my water pack from DAKINE was great sucess as well the 5.5 from Hot Sails. How you can handle it!


Morning Group: I compete at wave division. Eyal was always the first...
the men didn't give us any chance. I finish 6 place... next time I will try to rig a 4.8 diva, bigger sail I was way under power with the Smack 4.5

Afternoon Group: I compete at Women/women Jr. ops!...
First race, I did very good after KArla Aguera
; second I run at women Jr. Get confuse...I saw girls... and I was sure that was my division and the other were confuse. This fact disturb me in general...but at end I finish with 3rd. place at WOmen Open and 2nd. place at womens Jr.


This day of competition show me to be more focus, to write the numbers of my races bigger, try to control beter my feeling about my own mistakes and traing more better jibes. It was a good practice for me...I know I can do better and I will do my best to improve more and more!

At end we had some food...
"hamburgers"...Tatiana so hungry after all day competing, sufering as vegetarian decide to eat meat....and I and Baxter didn't beleive that she will start with HAMBURGERS....hehehe

Aloha

Camping Haleakala- Full Moon...lua cheia linda!!! ceu estrelado...

Foi um experiencia incrivel!!!
Idea veio espontaneamente de Amir, depois do velejo de Hookipa e movidos pela aventura do hiking de noite saímos eu, Eyal , Matan e Amir.
Conseguimos chegar no topo do Haleakala as 10:30 da noite e seguimos a caminha descendo a cratera até as 2:30 da madrugada....devidos a várias paradas estratégicas tipo:
- Descansar das mochila, Juliana;
- Tomar cházinho do Amyr;
- História de direcoes das constelaçoes NORTE (agalá) e SUL (gimel), Matan;
- Fotos divertidas, Eyal...
Capotei de cansada assim que chegamos.
Eyal e os meninos ainda foram comer o famoso "miojo...macarrão".
Acordei de manhã maravilhada com a natureza, ar rarefeito...clima agradável.
Rolaram conversas filosóficas sobrepor exemplo: por quê vemos o céu azul e etc.

Seguimos a aventura pela cratera seguindo o caminho da lava pelo chão com lanternas
tentando descobrir o fim...confesso que teve uma hora que tive um medinho...heheheh...Eyal ainda se escondeu e me deu um susto pra "ajudar"!...heheheh

Galera vale a pena, sair do comodismo, da rotina e seguir numa aventura pela natureza....é muito energizante!
