Fede forhold til stævnet i Norge

Der blev i weekenden afholdt konkurrence i Norge – trods det kolde vejr og gnavne myndigheder valgte flere at trodse vejret og surfe i nogle fantastisk forhold. Thomas Svensson har sendt nogle fine billeder – flere som jeg desværre ikke kan vise, da de viser julemanden i aktion, både på land og vand. Netop pga. myndighederne skal disse + en rigtig fin film tilbageholdes – øv!

Bad Santa shows up and takes historic win in the Norways ice-coldwater Jaws.

A perfect day for windsurfing up north by the pole showed to be quite a handfull for the organizer ending stuck in the molo by the extremely dangerous Renna. No contestants dared to show up so he found himself having to defend the Nordic honour by himself. A very bad idea, with waves topping 7 meters on Renna.

So with the event seemingly in ruins with the only competitor/organiser injured and his equiment sticking out of a big stone wall (Quatro KT, 100 carbon masts/bom etc), the man we all know as Santa Claus from Norway/North pole (same shit) suddenly appears out of nowhere.

Santa slashed and burned masthigh sets at a spot where no-one but himself is allowed to sail. His old sail ‘Rudolf’ and his trusted slade ‘Proof’ wrote a fairytale on the water while all nordic sailors failed to show any currage just to undertake mischief at the yearly office christmas party. Prior to a hasty departure, Santa uttered this meaningfull message to windsurfers all around the world:
”Ho ho, gotta go. Won’t be back before the snow. Merry Christmas everyone.”

Here are the official results:

1. Santa Claus
2. Organiser
