News training camp day 1

News from Eze (22nd June, morning)
Training camp in Riva del Garda Europeans and Worlds Team

Dear All,

As I learnt to say in Switzerland...”Tip top” conditions on day one:
The day started with quite a lot of work to do, as we had to make the shopping, unload the boats, prepare the equipment, etc.
After during that, we have a great pasta lunch at Fraglia Vela Riva, and at 14.00 the team went sailing on splendid 18-20knt and 30 degrees temperature.
Although the wind decreased to 12-15 knt, sailors had a great session, as they sailed for 3 ½ hours, first concentrating on maneuvers and boat handling, and later racing against some Italians and a very strong Brazilian sailor, already arrived to prepare the Euros as well.

The highlights of the day were for the “Lemaniques” Seb Schneiter(2-1-5) Victor Casas (1-4-5), and Jocelyn Keller (5-3-1).
Nevertheless, I’m quite satisfied with the level of the whole team. There’s are great spirit, and everyone is willing to improve.
See some pics of the day enclosed.

Today we go for another super sailing session, GO SWISS GO….!!!

Best winds for garda,Eze
