Oka finishes 13th in wind-surfing

JAKARTA (JP): Indonesian lone hopeful I Made Oka Sulaksana
finished 13th after nine races in the Olympic wind-surfing
competition at Savannah Beach, Georgia.

Coach Robby Rumeper said that Oka, who competed in the one
mistral design class, scored the highest points among the Asian
surfers.

"His performance was fairly good as European seeds were placed
only in the 20s in the final rankings," Robby said.

Robby said that although Oka failed to achieve his top ten
target, he had made progress. "He rarely performed well during
the practices and the competition," Robby was quoted by Antara as
saying. (yan)
