The Regatists of the Marina El Portet Sports Club win the highest national titles of Formula Kite of the season

During three days, Denia has hosted the Spanish Championship of Formula Kite 2018, completing ten of the 15 sleeves scheduled.

On Saturday the wind put in check the technical body organizing this race led by Evaristo Cabanell, which even though he tried by all the means to raise a signal of attention did not get it, being forced to make a postponement on A almost around the seven of the afternoon giving the end of this day of races at the Marina El Portet Sports Club and signing a day blank, leaving all the excitement for the last day of competition in the waters of Denia.

On Sunday it was cloudy and with a north-component wind that ranged between eight and ten knots of intensity during all the sleeves with a chubbask fixed a few miles from the race field that acted as a fan during the three hours that the regatists used to complete the last five tests of the championship, but it put to work the balizer and race committee to reposition the race field manga to manga as the chubuco moved to the east until it was diluted as the temperature in the race field increased.

Alejandro Citation went out to the race field with the clear aim of untying his tie with Chivizov by the leader of the open championship, and also of keeping an eye on not endangering his lead in the Spanish championship of the class with Gunnar Biniasch, Carlos Puig Capdevila and Mauricio Weppert trying to take any opportunity to take the first place from the regatist of the Marina El Portet Sports Club.

In the first and second manga of the day, the sixth and seventh of the championship, Alejandro Climent was able to sign a third and second place, just behind the Russians Denis Taradin, who seemed to be resenting with two first of the bad first day of the championship, and Aleksey Chivizov, who crossed the second and third respectively the line of arrival keeping their options intact for the Open of Spain of Formula Kite.

During the third and fourth manga of the day Chivizov was able to take the whole game out of his comet Flysurfer of 21 square meters, preventing Alejandro Citation from getting close to him in large part because the Spanish made the decision to go out with his 19-metre zone instead of that of 21, penalizing him much in open terms those two square meters of difference.

09 / 06 / 2018: Hard start of the 2014 Formula Kite Spanish Championship in Denia

El campeonato de España de Formula Kite 2018 comenzó con cinco intensas pruebas para los regatistas, técnicos y organización

The 2014 Formula Kite Spanish Championship began with five intense tests for the regatists, technicians and organization

With 16 Spanish regatists and two Russians, who participate at the invitation of the Royal Spanish Vela Federation, the first day of the Spanish Championship of Formula Kite began.

The intensity of the wind was high... to see the great favorites go out to sail with comments of only 11 square meters being seen at some point somewhat forced due to the wind force in the northern area of the race field.

Under these conditions the Russian Aleksey Chibizov is the first leader of the championship, showing that it has been the best to adapt to the stressful conditions of the first day of competition at the Levant Rate. Chivizov signed two first, two seconds and a fourth place which he discards for carrying out five tests.

The first Spanish in the provisional classification has been Alejandro Climent Hernández, from the Club Deportivo Marina El Portet de Denia, who holds the second place, tied to points with Chivizov.

The third step of the provisional podium of the day is the regatist of the Deportivo Club Eolo Castellón Carlos Puig Capdevila achieving its best positions when the wind was less intense.

The one who did not live his best day was the Russian Denis Taradin, winner of the last stop of the Spanish Cup of Formula Kite held also the Marina El Portet Sports Club. While everything made it a warning that Taradin would leave no choice to his rivals, getting across the line of arrival of the first manga in the first place, the Russian began to suffer falls and complications that led him to sign a fifth in the second test of the day and a ninth in the third.

Tomorrow the regatta committee plans to raise a signal of attention at nine in the morning and all indicates that it will remain an intense day of regatta for the dispute of this Spanish championship of Formula Kite 2018, last test of the national season of this class and from where the national team of Formula Kite will come.
