Bon, bin visiblement c'etait la guerre pour ce round Texel. 5-6 bf, vague courte de 2 a 3 m. Cori a un oeil au beurre noir et un genou explose .

Cela dit, il s'en sort plutot bien compare a Mitch Booth, qui a enfourne a 25 kn, il s'est envoye la derive dans le bas du dos ... finalement plus de peur que de mal (probleme musculaire)

Y'a des photos de ca

Pfff faites du skiff c'est plus facil....
Pas trop grave le genou ?? C'est chiant çà !

Quoi que la meme chose en skiff, c'est sympa aussi

Je crois que c'est pas trop grave pour son genou ... en tout cas il continue de s'entrainer pour Travemuende
