The WWA Wake Park World Championships and last stop of the WWA Wake Park World Series are done ...
Germany ... well Dominik won the title for us ... check out the final results HERE
The week here in Abu Dhabi was really good... seeing everyone again and riding at a pretty good cable (although the obstacles were not the best) in december at around 25 °C
We had a really good hotel with a nice restaurant, pool, spa and ofcourse rooms.
Also Abu Dhabi has so much to offer besides the Cable, and we took the time to do some of it.
Not only go-karting and paintball in the Al Forsan Sports Resort but also a visit to the amazing Ferrari World just next to the Hotels and the Abu Dhabi F1 track.
The Ferrari World has probably one of the craziest Roller coasters I’ve ever been in. They weren’t allowed to build any loopings because the Airport is pretty close and it would have been to high, so as creative as the rich sheiks are here they just made it the fastest one in the world. 240 km/h in 4.9 seconds .... adrenaline pure ... if you ever go there take the time and get in line for the first row seats even if the cue is a little longer but it will be worth it for sure.
Also the 3D roller coaster movie ride they have is pretty good although it makes my eyes hurt and other people almost puke but you actually feel like driving thru an animated world... really awesome.
Now it’s time to go home back to cold and snowy Hamburg, and I’m actually quite happy to be back home for some time after this 6 weeks trip even if it’s cold and the cables are closed.
And waiting in the Lounge at the Airport is also not to bad ... especially if you have to wait for almost 7 hours
