Paulo dos Reis claims the 2012 Downunder Pro
Paulo dos Reis has captured the 2012 Downunder Pro, at picturesque Jimmy’s Beach, Hawks Nest, Australia. The Brazilian racer dominated the four-day regatta by winning all 7 races over the event ahead of Jesper Vesterstrøm, from Denmark, and 56 other windsurfers.
"This was the first time I’ve come to Australia and I was very impressed with the hospitality and the great racing conditions. It was windy, and that’s the conditions I like, so I’m very happy to win and I will definitely be back next year", says Paulo dos Reis.
Sean O'Brien, event organizer and defending champion, was the first Australian over the line coming in a clear 5th overall and just 2 points behind 4th placed Mathias Pinheiro, from Brazil.
O’Brien becomes the Oceanic and Australian Formula Windsurfing champion for the 6th time now as international competitors are ineligible for the title. He has been racing in Hawks Nest for over 12 years now.
"We picked this beach to run the event for more than just the quality sailing it produces. It’s got a small town vibe which is great for families who compete, there’s plenty of other things to do for the non-windsurfers and the conditions this place produces are absolutely World-Class. I had a great event and punishing Mathias in the last race really capped it off for me", said O'Brien.
