Hi everybody! Yesterday we disputed the double elimination of freestyle, and finally I could keep the first position. The pain in my knee was not so strong, but I went to the doctor again for infiltrate a painkiller. It is incredible, when they injected to me, after 15 minutes I had no pain and I could compete with a lot of motivation and confidence. I tried to ride the best as possible and to give the greatest show, but with a little caution. In the final I faced Kristin Boese again. The conditions were one of my favorites, although the sea was very choppy, near the beach was quite flat with a perfect kicker, similar to Tarifa. I competed with the Airush Generator 7.5m, my favorite kite and made 4 handle passes in the heat; blind judge, front mobe, slim chance and 313. At the last minute I tried the back mobe but I didn’t land it. These final wasn’t the best I’ve ever done, but I am happy because I rode quite powerful.

Today I’m sad, because these last three days of competition I won’t participate in course racing, wave or kite loop discipline. I have to relax a lot. On Monday when I come back to Málaga airport, I will catch a flight directly to Barcelona. I will go there because I wanted that FC Barcelona’s medical services look at the knee, and decide the best way to solve the problem. We will keep you posted. Kisses from Germany Gigi
