How to start the new year

 

(C) by Konstantinos Tsigkaras

That’s the way to begin a new year, I thought let’s go skiing a few days, having a cool new years eve party in the Swiss mountain (Davos) and then I will fly to Athens to run a Match Race training with Luca Babini for Sofia Bekatorou and here friends.

But as most of the time things go different as you plan. I went skiing, finally after 10 years of snowboard back on the ski, it was great fun this carving ski and now I’m here with a broken hand.

I asked the doctor in the hospital this morning to put me on a water prove cast as it has to stay on for 4 weeks.

At least I will fly to Athens anyway, will be bit difficult to drive the rubber boat with a cast.

During the training we will have 4 Beneteau 25, 4 Greek teams and a few Greek judges who are very keen to get in to the umpire role.

We have 4 days time to practice pre starts and a few races. Maybe in the last days we will run a small match race and see who get out most of these training days and some points for the ISAF Ranking list.

Wish you all safe skiing during the vacations and a happy new year.
