One more great event! It was a long trip but I had much fun and really enjoyed the riding with the people of Lithuania and some from Latvia.
After landing in Riga (Latvian capital) and driving 4h to Klaipéda in Lithuania I had a short night sleep and went to the spot of Svencele to check out the event which had started the previous day as the forecast was already good and they decided to start with the freestyle comp which I missed… But I still had some great conditions and could ride with some cool people watching. It was well fun to hear them cheering every time I would land a nice trick. Really motivating and that’s how all events should be!!!
It’s like a big friendly family of riders and they really push each other and make the riding much more fun.

The next day I rode in a mini lagoon with the flattest water ever and I had again a great time as it was surrounded by people watching!
I was tired from the party tho, these guys are just crazy but I like it, dancing on the table already at 10PM. At least you can go to sleep earlier than here in Spain and have some rest for next days… At least that’s why I did, but one of the guys went straight to the water at 6a.m after the party!

Then I had one free day and they took me to a really cool village called Nida, which is near Kaliningrad (part of Russia) border, so I can say I’ve been 5km away from Russia!! haha.
The place was great, and we had some local smoked fish, beers, etc.
I must say a big thanks to Viktoras the NKB Importer and to the guys that were so kind and showed me the place,  specially Audrius and his family for the great hospitality.

Now I’m in tarifa for a week, we’ll shoot with the new Evo kite and I will start training again, some spinning bike for tonight!

Cheers,
