The Easter weekend was no different.
The second part of the Open took place in Carcavelos on Thursday, with pretty pathetic waves of less than 0.5m and very inconsistent.
The set up was all there and I guess they had to run it. Luis was one that got the worst of the conditions and although he scored high compared to the other heats, he still did not manage to get through.
Keshia was lucky because she went in at the end of the day, caught the low tide and won her heat.
Friday was pretty much the same or even worst in Carcavelos, if thats possible, so the event was moved to Guincho. As it was so late, they just finished one of the boys rounds and left the rest for the final day.
Keshia did not manage to repeat her result in the last contest and finished her run in the semis. Still a good result with 4 more events to go.
She is currently ranked 2nd in the open with only 80 points difference and Luis is in the top 10. Next event is in Porto at the end of May.
Luis will be going there straight from a European Pro Junior contest in Las Palmas and Keshia will go form Porto to Aveiro for another girls Open event and then the Junior Nationals.
On Sunday, Kehsia had the Girls Open Sea Land Surf Fest in Santa Cruz. It was an almost all Ericeira Girls final.
Keshia got second in this one ( although her best wave was caught just after the buzzer.....and would have put her in 1st place )
A good weekend for all, not many Easter Eggs but lots of fun :)
