Who has made it to the quarter finals? - GKA Kite-Surf World Cup Dakhla Day Two Highlights
The GKA Kite-Surf World Cup Dakhla had its second day of competition. This is day Men’s Round 5 and Women’s Round 4 were completed.
Brazilian Sebastian Ribeiro has given us several high 9 point scoring waves in his career. His round five heat performance was once again from the top drawer, with two high 9s. However, it was perhaps Mohamed-Ali Beqqali who delivered the individual high performance of the day as he fought back impressively through the losers round 4 to meet Gabriel Benetton in round 5. Beqqali’s free-flowing frontside rhythm is so in tune with this break, it was simply too much for the Brazilian’s lack of water time here. On the women's side Zoé Bazile came out charging to set the tone for the ladies. But it was Kesiane Rodrigues, yet another Brazilian talent on show at this event, who blew the field away in round one. Scoring 15.73 from two waves, she demonstrated beautiful, flowing turns and vertical hits on the biggest available sections. Fast forward to the end of day 2 and Capucine Delannoy, Marcela Witt, Camille Losserand, Frances Kelly, Catharina Edin and Susi Schwarztrauber are also through to the quarter finals, coming up Thursday.
