KP at the 2013 Aloha Classic.
The American Windsurfing Tour has already visited Santa Cruz, Pistol River, Peru, Baja and Hatteras this year – these events producing incredible conditions setting the stage for the Maui finale.In the pro fleet it is a three horse race for the title, with Kevin Pritchard, Morgan Noireauxand Levi Siver sitting in first, second and their respectively going into the Starboard Severne Aloha Classic. Whilst KP has the lead, if Siver’s previous form is anything to go by he could be tough to beat and could still walk away with the title.In the women’s fleet it is Ingrid Larouche is in the driving seat, but 17-year-old Fiona Wylde is hot on her heels and could certainly steal her crown.After the AWT competition the top pro riders will join the PWA as they also hold their final wave tour stop and crown the 2014 world champions. The two-week competition period will not only be full of nail-biting action on the water, but a whole host of activities off the water too.
