Rienstra Palawan

The Solaire Blue Palawan Open took place in the Philippines over the last week.  Wakestyle professionals descended on the Blue Palawan Beach Park to compete in this open format park style competition.  They had good breeze throughout the week and were able to complete men’s and women’s finals, along with the King and Queen of the Kicker.  Check out the daily videos, results, and an epic photo gallery from Toby Bromwich at the bottom.

“The Solaire Blue Palawan Kite Open went off this year with some epic wind conditions. Brandon and I both made it through to the finals but struggled in the gusty wind conditions, missing a lot of our best hits and dropping out of podium contention early. But that didn’t ruin the trip for us at all! Between surfing on the other side of the island and free riding through the mangroves and in the Park, it was a perfect escape from the cold winter in the North.”
