US Olympic Windsurfing Team Announced!
Congratulations to Farrah Hall and Bob Willis!
The recent ISAF World Sailing Championships in Perth, Australia was the final event of the US Olympic trials for windsurfing. After many days of racing in a variety of conditions, Farrah Hall and Bob Willis were named to the 2012 US Olympic Team for windsurfing. Bob had a fantastic event and in addition to being the top US finisher, he also finished well enough to qualify the United States for a spot to compete in the Olympics for men’s RS:X. Farrah was the top US finsher among the women, and just missed qualifying the US for a spot in the women’s RS:X event at the Olympics. She will have another chance to qualify the country at the 2012 RS:X World Championships in Cadiz, Spain in March.
