(Zane & Connor from Maui)

At the Trentino ISAF Slalom World Championships at Lake Garda, Italy our Italian racers and our North Sails Groms did very well in difficult light conditions. Connor Baxter and Zane Schweitzer checked came all the way from Maui to take part in their first event at lake Garda. Both did very well, especially Connor who tied for 1st with rented gear since the wind was unexpected light. Swiss talent Eric Guggi finished on a great 9th place in the category under 17 years. Congratulations Connor, Zane and Eric.
