The Maldives National Windsurfing Championships 2006 Print E-mail
The Maldives National Windsurfing Championships took place over the weekend of 8-9 September at "Club Faru" located in the North Male Atoll.

There was a good turnout for the three events with 14 people competing in the Freestyle, 20 people in the Slalom and 8 Teams (16 people) for the Inter Resort Team Slalom Race,

The wind conditions were exceptionally good, however quite challenging too, because the wind varied from 12-30 knots so it was interesting to see who had selected the right equipment at the right time.

The freestyle podium was an all NeilPryde/JP affair and congratulations to Mahir and Jochen, NeilPryde’s Distributors in the Maldives and winners of the Team Slalom.
