DWW’s Kendra is the perfect example of if you at first don’t succeed, try, try again.

Blessed with exotic beauty and a sweet feminine persona, Kendra stood out as a girl who was growing in skill on the wrestling mats and due to her unwillingness to quit, was respected by competitors, fans and reviewers alike.

Her resume includes contesting Lucille, Anastasia, Leslie, Marketa, Paola, Mariella, Jana N and Lisa and others.

The reviews that speak to her energy are in. “This match is one of the traditional long sgpin matches with no counting but sgpins to a submission. We know that sgpin fans love these matches, particularly when there are long and dominating sgpins and a helpless but heavily struggling weaker women who doesn’t accept to lose. This match falls exactly into this category. Leslie is strong and confident but Kendra just doesn’t want to get humiliated. She fights back and even when close to tears she just doesn’t want to admit of being the weaker woman and she gives Leslie and exciting match”

You can see based upon this review why it’s easy to admire Kendra’s spirit. Even in defeat she keeps fighting. Another reviewer enjoyed her wrestling as well.

“One of the enjoyable things about this match is that it involves two new faces. There is Paola, a 19-year old who is wrestling in her first match. Her opponent is Kendra. Although Kendra has much experience, this is also one of her first competitive wrestling matches. This match also lets you know that summer has arrived at DWW. Although wrestling on grass is very exciting, placing a mat in the middle of a beautiful, pastoral setting sends a very clear message: “We are here to wrestle”!!

The match begins with arm wrestling followed by a stare-down. Although this match is between wrestling novices, there were many aggressive takedowns, and several skill moves were displayed. Surprisingly, both wrestlers were very skilled at applying a grapevine hold. Fans of this hold will especially enjoy seeing not one, but two 10-second grapevine pins! That does not happen very often.

Those who enjoy watching a “turnabout” or “revenge” situation will especially enjoy watching how the body scissors is used. One wrestler who was forced to submit to a crushing body scissors came right back in the next fall and put the same hold on her opponent. The look on her face indicates that she enjoyed giving her opponent a “taste of her own medicine.”

One sure sign that both wrestlers are novices is the fact that neither one has developed a high threshold for pain when they are put in a submission hold, nor have they learned countermoves for when they are put in a pinning situation. As a result this 20-minute match has 13 falls! That might be a record. Both women wrestled with enthusiasm and both were very intent on winning. Those facts made this a very enjoyable match.”

Ah, he speaks of wrestling in the great outdoors and how he enjoyed the DWW girls wrestling on the grass and the beauty of summer.

Summer in Austria where the majority of DWW matches took place is a wonderful time. This park like country provides bountiful recreation from the mountains and rolling hills to one of my favorite summer getaways, the calm lake.

Kendra clearly loved competing outdoors so encouraged by her, let’s travel there.

The very nice site austria.info provides us with a large beach towel and introduces us to some of the beautiful, serene bathing lakes in the region.

Mountain Beach

 

Gaschurn in Montafon offers its visitors a special attraction: two giant 7,000m² eco-pools at 800m above sea level. Absolutely no chemicals are used at the “Mountain Beach” to keep the water clean; this “task” is left to special plants and micro-organisms instead.

Thank you Kendra for inspiring a visit to another of Austria’s outdoor marvels. So many memories can be made lying on the safety of the lake, out in the sun with a picnic basket and a towel along with family and wonderful friends.

Kendra is another example of why Female Competition International feels that everyday women should enjoy wrestling without having the pressure of being a top star. They still inspire us.

Sometimes being able to lie under the stars in the summer at a calm bathing lake is inspiration enough.

Some may find other women’s wrestling sites erotic in nature. If you are offended by depictions of women wrestling in erotic situations, please exercise caution in visiting women’s wrestling sites.
