Billy Parker went to europe to compete in the pkra. Also josh taylor is killing it on the water for his first florida season. He already does f-16. He is slingshot 05 on this site.

Moderately confident that is in South America.

Bill did not advance to the main event.
Press release here http://www.kiteblogs.com/

"Madison Van Heurck (Naish, USVI) beat out Billy Parker (Flexifoil, USA). Parker pulled some nice high handle pass moves at the shoreline but Madison nailed a KGB, Slimchance and Mob with the kite in the lower position that the judge’s prefer."

Bill still gets the hero's return for going where most of us will never go, much less compete in a world kiteboarding championship event.

He is due back on May 2nd

Damn,

Too bad. I thought he would place top 10. No doubt that being there and competing will give him more motivation and was nothing but good for him. IMO, Bill has what it takes to be a top athlete (in any sport). One thing he could use is a town with more WIND in the summer. Can we buy him a wind tunnel or something?
