Bonaire Junior World Freestyle Championships May 2005

The play ground and training ground of the world famous Bonaire Sailing Team will be the site for the premier Junior World Freestyle Championships May 20-22, 2005. Talented youth freestyle sailors are invited to attend this event being held the same week as the Bonaire PWA King of the Caribbean. The best youth sailors from the region and around the world will compete in the most dazzling windsurf discipline, freestyle. In the years to come some of these top talents will be soon on the PWA Tour.

With moves bearing zany names like the Flaka and Grubby, Freestyle is one of the hottest water sports for youths across the globe. Freestyle is fun and exciting and also very affordable requiring only one board and a few sails. Windsurf companies recognize the value of the youth as they emerge to spurn the growth in windsurfing. To accommodate their needs companies have created light weight affordable rigs to allow the kids to maximize their skills in the wind. Competitions locally incorporate kid’s clinics and competitions. Kids around the world dazzle the crowds at events doing tricks and maneuvers leaving the spectator dizzy. Bonaireans are no strangers to this exciting sport. It is fitting that Bonaire will host the first Junior World Freestyle Championships. A Caribbean island once known as Divers Paradise has new attention. Bonaire is known in the windsurf world as one of the best places to learn and perform freestyle. Bonaire will play host to this first time event.
