Kitesurf OEM Traunsee, Austria

Lake Traun (Traunsee) in Upper Austria’s breathtakingly beautiful Salkammergut-region was hosting the first part of the 2008 National Championships. The event that was held over 3 days was blessed with sunshine and almost tropical temperatures, lots-a-good vibes, nice crew, however, unfortunately what was missing (as so often during competitions): the so needed wind !?

In any case, participants, organisation, locals everyone did him/her best to still make a memorable event out of it and I would say, we succeeded 🙂  My main sponsor O2alive supported the event with unlimited power-kicks for everyone, i.e. as much 2alive power water as one could only wish for, nice!

Kiteboarding.de magazine just published my write-up of it on 3 pages. Have fun!
