Flying Arubies

Hi guys!
We know we've been quiet for quite some time.. and it's time to give a little update.
As you can see the Flying Arubies page was changing form and getting ready for the next campaign, in the end there is a new page where you can follow Nicole and Odile's road to the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games! Thijs took the challenge of being coach for a while and is helping the Belgian Nacra teams improve rapidly!
Thanks for all the support!
The Flying Arubies

Aruba's sailing girls 49er Fx Olympic campaign for Tokyo 2020. Odile van Aanholt and Nicole van der Velden representing the island of Aruba.

The past 2,5 years as a team have been a whirlwind. It hasn't been an easy path but it has certainly been worth it. Running a whole campaign on just two people is extremley hard and we want to thank each and every person who has helped us in any way possible. Thanks to all our friends, family, flying friends and sponsors! A special thanks to Xcellent, ASD Aruba, Comite Olimpico Arubano , Cemedar Sports Medicine Aruba , NeilPryde Sailing, Sailcenter and to the people who have helped us behind the scenes. Also a special thanks to Hester Ozinga, Arjen Rahusen, Duco Snijder, Ad van den Oever, Pim Nieuwenhuis, Carlien Harms, Jan Huijbers, Will Howden.
You guys have been a must have and we are very grateful for all the effort you guys have put in! Now, let's see what's coming next!
