2021 WASZP European Games – Day 1 – SLALOM
Scorching temperatures and brilliant blue skies greeted competitors for day 1 of the 2021 WASZP European Games. With the 88 competitors split into 8 flights it was all to play for as the first international WASZP racing in 2 years was unleashed and isn’t it great to be back!!
Competitors were greeted with a glassy Lake Garda, but like clockwork as only Garda can deliver, a nice 10-12 knot Ora began to pipe in from the south. The sailing window was expected to be small and it was a credit to the race committee to get an hour and a half of quality Slalom racing in. In all 8 flights (heats) and 4 quarter-finals were completed just as the breeze began to fade.
The remainder of the slalom event will be held later in the week (potentially tomorrow), this will include 2 blockbuster semi-finals and a finals series for the final 10 sailors selected, with the top 5 from each flight going through to the final.
