Competition Delay
October 31, 2007 in Uncategorized by Jorg Jansen
Simo and Stavros are reporting from the competition site that the wind is so bad that the waves are too big too continue. So at first the constant weight for women was postponed to 13:00 hours but it soon became clear the the whole day would be postponed to tomorrow.
Stavros reports; One of the main problems with the waves is that as the competition lines are supported on floating platforms the lines are flying up and down by as much as 2m … this means that the (stainless steel) bottom plates are flying up and down by as much as 2m with the lines and there have been training dives where the plate “attacked the diver” (I think lotta got hit by the plate a couple of days ago). So all in all it looks … a lot of nervous women walking around or stretching in their rooms and a constant annoying wind.
