IWWF Cable Wakeboarding Worlds Finals

11th of November were open men and women finals in IWWF Cable Wakeboarding Worlds.
It was really great to watch so amazing riding in exciting finals.

Women:
Winner Sophia Marie Reimers was second position after first runs. She made great second run e.g. Blind Judge, Backmob, Front flip to revert with tail grab... and won.
Kirsteen Mitchel was leading after first round and had still possibility to beat Reimers, but she fell down her first air-trick (S-bend to blind) and couldn't make her more risky and difficult 2nd run.
Really tight battle was between Cosima Giemza and Denise De Haan for 3rd place.
After first runs Cosima was leading 0,34 points. She couldn't make better 2nd run, but De Haan did little bit better, but not enough. After all they had only 0,1 points difference.

Men:
There was almost drama in men's finals when Dominik Guhrs fell both his runs, like Nick Davies as well.
Dominik was ruling whole week making really stable runs. His the first run (that easier and the most stable one) could be enough to win all, but he lost handle on the last kicker when he was doing bs 7. His second run he fell down when he was doing backmob5 in the middle of his run. The first felt run was enough to 4th place.

In the beginning Nick Davies got re-run when rope got loose from carrier. Then during re-run he fell, when he was making railey 540 (315). His second run he fell same place, when he was doing backmob5.

Winner of the day was Frederic von Osten. He fell his first run, when he lost the handle during his second air trick. He changed his program totally for 2nd run and made e.g. Railey 540 (315) and Backmob5 between 2 towers.
Then Moby dick5 from the last kicker and nobody could beat his scores.

Declan Clifford got the second place, he made good first run and was leading after first runs, but couldn't make better 2nd run and beat von Osten. Clifford did e.g. very big and clean KGB, 313...

San Im 15 years old amazing boy, who rides like men. He did e.g. Front flip to blind with tail grab, Backmob, S-mob5 and toe side railey to blind. He got 3rd place by his first run, which was the first run of whole finals.

From kickers everybody were spinning 720's or 900's.
