// REPORT Day 11
2001-02-15, Another day without a "duell". No wind but pretty much swell. Even the water is quiete warm at the moment. About 16 ° celsius. We started to edit the first footage with Ralf. Afterwards I went down to Big Bay for a little surf session. By the way yesterday at Witsands sevreal cars had been opend "with violance and bad attitude". Also our little Nissan now has rather wide locks. But luckily nothing has been stolen so far. Some of the dudes and dolls try to protect their cars with differnt kind of lockers and higher spirits..:-)

Lars is going to leave CPT with direction to Maui for a fotoshoot. For tomorrow the forecast seems to predict conditions for another webfight day... Allan vs Robert Sand and Klaas Voget vs Bernd Flessner are supposed to be the competitors. But let's see if the gods are with us...

The concept / rules for this time:we changed the whole thing to a "duell". Each contest is done by 2 competitors.

Heat duration: 7 min. with one man on the water at the time then rotating to the other. All repeated 3 times, so the Camera records totally 21 minutes of each rider. Changeing of boards and sails during the heats allowed. Each rider chooses 1 minute out of his recorded material. He determines the editing of his movie. So he is able to select the moves he thinks to be the best for his result. No special effects, except slow motion. No Repeats of moves nor editing of moves in a way where it looks like they are landed while in reality they are not. The video clips will be online after our standby period of 20 days. Around the 25th of Feb you will be able to vote for your favorite competitors. The result will be presented on this "web location". So tune in again.
