Tuesday brought the strongest breeze so far in Tallinn at the Laser European Championships & Trophy 2010 with 18-25 knots of wind and big chop. See the comments by Clay Johnson USA. It also was quite cold as the days video recap shows. In the 148-boat Laser Standard two-time world champion Tom Slingsby AUS enjoyed the conditions with a third and a first in his group races to take the overall lead ahead of the 2004 Olympic silver medalist Andreas Geritzer AUT and the previous leader Rutger Schaardenburg NED. Geritzer leads the all-European standings.
