Congratulations to our two standout riders, Yentel Caers and Tigo Kort who logged incredible performances at Freestyle Pro Tour Vieste.
Yentel flew through the single elimination, making it all the way to the final and finishing in 2nd place.
Yentel reflected after the final: “I cant wait to see all the new moves to still come in this rapidly progressing discipline”. He added that he has been speaking to the Muller brothers and that he thinks that double power moves are not far out.
Tigo was by far the standout of the double elimination, powering his way all the way back to 4th position before the wind sadly dropped to a non-computable level and hence, halted Tigo's run for the podium.
From FPT about Tigo's performance: "Winning three heats, against home friends Bodhi Kempen (Severne) and Tim Gerdes (Severne) as well as against Jamie Howard (Severne), Tigo cemented his position as a Foilstyle contender. Most impressive were his upwind carve initiated Burner’s, which he managed to methodically execute in every heat."
Congratulations to everyone who took part in the event. It's amazing to see the progression of this awesome discipline that opens the door to super light wind freestyle action. We will look forward to the next stop in Vesoul on the 8th-9th June!!
