160408 CANNES FRA Flying Phantoms 2016 (Foil) : blitz experience 64 pict.
Cantin and Arthur: Enthousiasm, Talent, Results ...with micro budget !
What a nice story !
2 very young sailors Cantin ROGER and Arthur Boc HO met 1st time on the RED BULL french selection last year...and won ! This crew ll represent FRANCE in RED BULL world final, 16 october. in Newport USA.

Cantin (1995) is a pure "cata child" and one of the best F18 present racer; Arthur BOC HO (1998) has a top level in acrobatic 29er; both have a real "fun power" wich really deserve a sponsor to help them to face new challenges among many super pros as on this Cannes race.
I had only this friday afternoon to spend around this 3 days event and very strict rules about spectators and coach boats shortened the time on water. Restricted rights given to photos display is major reason why I can offer on this blog only pictures of FRA 1 as this crew used my Lomac as a coach/photo boat and gave me authorization.
With this lack of time, all restrictions, and nobody on board to help, not easy to find the "right place to be" for a photographer and this album (sea link on last picture) is just a short try.

Let's hope private sponsoring as this RED BULL world initiative
RED BULL foiling generation
can continue to help young sailors to enjoy these magic but expensive machines !

Cannes helped staff of YCC, offering sun and good wind conditions on this friday afternoon.
