2020 / 10 / 02: The opening day of the 29er National in Valencia is cancelled for the wind season

The wind has exceeded 30 knots, it has conditioned the program on the first day... after a deferral on the ground at 12: 00 about 2.45 hours today was concluded

The weather part planned for this first day of the Spanish championship, Trofeo Eliwell in the Royal Nautical Club of Valencia, has been completed. The different weather parts consulted on the Thursday day already announced that today was going to be a very hard day, and the parties have not failed on this occasion.

In the first hour of the morning the wind reached Valencia with intensity, but not with strength. A situation that was changing very quickly and in a short time, because the committee made the decision to send a beacon and see the panorama in the race field. The information that came was not good as a Poniente wind was recorded at 10.45 out of 17 to 23 knots of intensity, with tips that reached over 30 knots.

The wind was on the rise, as was the storm threat that has finally occurred. Eolo reached the RCNV's Regatta Base with just over 30 knots stable so the committee made the decision at 2.45 hours of intelligence on "A," ending today's day.

The forecasts for tomorrow, the second day, were expected somewhat more benevolent, although all points to an average of 20 knots of intensity, unless there are changes in the direction and intensity of the wind in the next few hours. The race committee, as reflected in the race instructions, plans to complete 5 tests for tomorrow, 4 days plus 1 recovery after being blank today without completing a single test.

2020 / 10 / 01: The 29th most outstanding competition in Valencia for the Spanish Championship - GP Eliwell

The Real Club Náutico de Valencia hosts from today, and until next Sunday, the only race with a national title in play this season, following the cancellation of the 29er Spanish Cup

The curtain for the 29er Spanish championship, "Trofeo Eliwell" stands at the Royal Nautical Club in Valencia. A championship, the only one with a national title in play for the class this year, starts today and will end next Sunday, October 4. In these three days of competition, the Valencian citation hosts a total of 19 ships (38 regatists) from Catalonia, the Balearic Islands, Cantabria, Gran Canarias and Comunitat Valenciana.

The 29er Spain fleet has had an important evolution in the last year, highlighting the RCN Valencia (9 ships) and RCN Palma (3 ships) who have contributed in a special way to the exponential growth and resurgence of the class in our country, as shown by the panel of inscriptions in the quote of Valencia.

But both are not the only ones that bring value to the Valencian quote, as the RCN Gran Canaria (4 ships) has been and is an important pillar for the 29er, as is the CN El Balís and the RCM Santander that arrive in the capital of the Turia with 1 boat each of them. Also comes knew new, case of the RCN Calpe (1 boat) that wager for the 29th.

These figures are accompanied by the level provided by the regatists on a very demanding boat such as the 29th, so the title will be very disputed and without a clear favorites to choose a podium square, although it is true that some have many options to be on the podium, case of the last champions of the 2019 Spanish Cup: Quicorras Urios (RCN Valencia), which has run out of his partner Filippo Benetti for an injury on his left hand this Sunday and which has been surgically intervened yesterday and is low 1 month. His position is occupied by another good regatists of El Balís, such as Alexandre Boquet, who already knows the 29th.

In females everything points to the Canarias, with Isabel Laiseca and Paula Barrio and Paula Laiseca and Elena Barrio, both of the RCN Gran Canaria. The level of the two ships is very high, although they will have a very competitive ship and that has shown a lot of level in the last races, such as Sara and Isabel Momplet (RCN Calpe), without giving up the local tandem formed by Rosario and Elena de Tomás.

The new hornada of regatists to the 29th class bring new savia to the fleet and in a short time have already shown level and ways, case the palmesans Luis Miró and Manuel Martín (RCN Palma) or the local Sergi Soler and Stjin Gast, together with Miguel Campos and Pablo Moreno, Mateo and Simón Codoñer or the women Daniela Senís and Obdulia Fernández among others. All of them, and the previous ones, must be taken into account the mixed crew of the CN El Balís, made up of Ona and Pol Rafart, or the Cantabros Victor Mauri and Rafael Gonzalez-Echegaray (RCM Santander).
