K!NN Team at KTA Thailand!

Postby KINN Pro Rider Team » Sat Mar 17, 2012 8:43 am

K!NN Pro Rider Team is back in Thailand again! KTA Thailand has been 4 days full of wind! With many course races and TT races run, our captain, Mr. Quy, is ranked 8th thus far. Captain of K!NN Team Thailand, Mr. Yo Pudla, is coming in steady at 3rd on his course board!

For freestyle competition Mr. Long is ranked 4th after single eliminations. The heat he reported most nerve racking was against Mr. Ken Nacor, the Filipino hero. Closest heat of the day according to the judges, Long came out on top! He went on to compete next against Japan's young Hiro, at 17 Hiro proved to be the better rider this match. Long went head-to-head against Yo next, K!NN Vietnam vs. K!NN Thailand, excitement ran high! Hiro went on to compete against Marek Jr. who won the heat. After single elimination, Marek is now ranked 1st, Hiro 2nd, Yo 3rd, and Long 4th. Today we look forward to the double elimination round. After last year's battle between Long and Marek, suffice to say the crowd is looking forward to the chance for Long to climb the ranks and for us all to see these two re-hash the "match to watch" last year! Go LONG, go STRONG!

and p.s.: We would like to draw attention to, and offer congratulations, to the high level of competition at this event. Even in the female bracket are we seeing, 'to blind, 'to wrap, and handle passes! What a change since the first year, GO Ladies!

Long, where is your leash?! He saw, but continued to pass the bar anyway and landed it!
