Aruba‘s windsurfing champion is currently in Fuerteventura, Canary Islands defending her crown in the 2013 PWA Freestyle Windsurfing Cup. In the Women’s Double Elimination Sarah-Quita Offringa faced Arrianne Aukes in the winners’ final once more after having beaten Yoli de Brendt in the preceding heat. Using a combination of a flawless e-slider and an impressive air flaka Sarah-Quita gave a stunning display. (See video of Sarah Quita performing an air flaka at a previous event.). Arrianne tried to defend with a spock 540 on the outside of the course, but fell short of the high level of performance she showed previously allowing Sarah-Quita, who continued with very well executed shaka and puneta, to seal the final in defense of her crown.
