~ EWAN FINISHES CHINA SINGLES TIED IN 5th ~
Great work from Aussie Kite Republic Team Rider Ewan Jaspan Kiteboarding at the Pingtan PKRA World Tour Event in China overnight.
Ewan was seeded #7 for the event which gave him a spot in the main draw without having to go through Qualifying.
In his 2nd Round he came up against French Rider Louis Hutter who made an epic start to the heat...
"Hutter start[ed] perfectly with the best grabbed 313 and S-1 grabbed that we have seen this year but could not follow it up with enough big moves to stop Jaspan." - prokitetour.com
After winning his way through to the Quarter Final's Ewan was taken down by Current World #2, Marc Jacobs.
This leaves Ewan tied for 5th position going into the Double Elimination in the coming day or two.
Good luck mate!
