Hey Toby!

Yes, extraordinary results for the Frenchies, these guys rock.

But please notice that none of these guys has been able to beat Adam Koch or Damien Leroy (American Continentals in Mexico, Corpus Christi worlds, Puerto Rico Caribbean Championship)

Can't wait to see them fight for the 2011 World Champion Title in Sylt!!!!

Hey Pouch,

Let me say that French racers are really great and outstanding and the french League races show top class level. It is not only Julien and Olivier. Salerno, Madier, Nocher, Hoceyni, ... yourself...

But Bruno was in Corpus and he was not able to beat Adam or Damo. Bruno was able to score two bullets only in ultra light winds.

And recently in Argentina, Heineken just trashed the competition winning ALL the races in front of Julien and Olivier.

Yes, the 2011 Worlds are going to be really exciting!!!!

Hopefully, Pouch, we'll meet in Arcachon next Spring. :thumb:
