Disappointed with my result at the Worlds at home waters. We had an amazing 2 months of preparation before the Worlds, with great wind. But during the worlds it was a super difficult week with long days waiting on shore. Unfortunately we could only sail 3 instead of the planned 5 days and one day of gold fleet racing. I couldn’t recover from the mistakes I made. Luckily the race for an Olympic ticket is still open. Time for a small holiday and make a new plan for the upcoming Worlds in January 2024.
Still I wanted to thank all the people that supported me on my way. Great organization during the event. So cool to have such a big World Championship in Holland.

My first World Championship in this new class done! Finally I finished on a 7th place. After an amazing start of the worlds. I made a few small mistakes that have big impact with this format. Very happy with the progress this year. Looking back it was a tough year after the Tokyo Olympics! I’m feeling very lucky with the people around me. Special thanks to my sponsors, family, friends, boyfriend and Team @mariabelenbazoper @ivanpastor @giorgos.charalampopoulos

Europeans are done ✅
First of all awesome to see this new Olympic class is growing so fast and with that the level is rising.
Personally I really enjoyed it to be back racing at Lake Garda. For me it was my first real competition on the IQ foil, a week with ups and down. It’s good to know where we are and I’m motivated to get back on the level where I want to be. Thanks to my team @mariabelenbazoper @ivanpastor @giorgos.charalampopoulos and sponsors @allianz_nl @worldline @teamnlinsta @watersportverbond @brunotti @liv_benelux

Enjoying the views but just making a bit to many mistakes. We are still close. Tomorrow is a new day. The goal is to be in the top ten on Saturday, to secure a spot for the medal knock out series on Sunday.

I was so looking forward to have my first big fleet racing on the IQ foil here @trofeosofia in Palma. It’s less then a week after my COVID infection. And the fact is that I'm not recovered enough. The conditions these last two days have been tough with 30 knots and at the moment I really miss the endurance and strength for that. So that's why we made the difficult but wise decision to go home where the focus will be on recovery.
See you at the @iqfoilclass Euros 👋🏻

New coach and first big competition in this new class is coming up! Looking forward to race again at the @trofeosofia
I’ve been in bed for a couple of days now, recovering from a COVID infection. But feeling much better already and hopefully soon back on the water here in Palma 😍

Happy with my new kites! Besides the Olympic equipment Duotone, Fanatic and Brunotti are providing me with all the fun toys. Besides the tough trainings from the last couple of years this keeps me mentally fresh. I love days like this in Scheveningen 😍

I had a tough and disappointing week at the Tokyo Olympic Games. It was not the performance I hoped and worked so hard for. I made too many little mistakes this week and we must be honest the other ladies this week just rocked and made fewer mistakes. For me the podium is already out of sight. Saturday awaits the medal race, the last official race on the RSX.

A steady day with 3 - 4 - 4 in fifth overall for now. Three more races and the medal race to go. The game plan is clear: let’s rock and then we will see where the rest of the competition ends up at the end of the day.

Als klein meisje voetbalde ik. Altijd buiten en natuurlijk in de spits. Ik wilde scoren, de prestatiedrang was groot. Toen ik op mijn twaalfde in Italië leerde windsurfen ging er letterlijk een nieuwe wereld voor mij open.
OVER MIJ
Nu is het water mijn tweede huis. Ik geniet iedere dag van de sport. Ga uitdagingen niet uit de weg. Iedere dag probeer ik met behulp van mijn team om beter te worden. De lat ligt hoog. Daar word ik echt gelukkig van.
Dat is wat mij drijft, dat is wie ik ben. Ik ben

LAATSTE NIEUWS

Lilian de Geus , meervoudig wereldkampioen windsurfen op het ‘oude’ olympische RS:X board, stopt met haar olympische campagne in de nieuwe olympische IQFoil klasse. De Geus kijkt als topsporter terug op een lange en succesvolle carrière van 15 jaar. De windsurfer uit Almere werd vierde op de Olympische Spelen van Rio in 2016 en vijfde op de Spelen van Tokio in 2021. Tussen beide Spelen werd ze drie keer wereldkampioen op het olympische RS:X board.

Na een dag zonder wind barste op dinsdag 30 januari de strijd om de wereldtitel in de olympische IQ Foil klasse echt los voor de meer dan 200 mannen en vrouwen windsurfers. Het comité koos voor het sprint slalomraces format. De dag begon met 6 tot 8 knopen en die wind nam toe tot 12 knopen gedurende de dag. Bij de vrouwen staat het gevecht om de wereldtitel op het spel maar voor de sporters van Team Allianz, ook de strijd om het nog belangrijkere olympische ticket.
