The Corona Extra PWA World Cup - Scotland, Tiree
Nik Baker in Tiree
Nik Baker still has a chance to get into the PWA overall wave podium on third by overtaking Josh Angulo. So there is much tension in the air and let’s keep our fingers crossed for Nik. Also Vidar (currently on 8th overall) and Orjan are on fire as you can see at the pics from a nice warm up session. Stay tuned for more action !
