Hey there Simon! Great to see you with a board and sail again! Enjoy!

Please a poll on the camera. I said it before. You are single handledly the youtube I've learnt the most from through the years. But the fisheye-camera makes it impossible to actually understand the different angles, stance and such. Actual speed is lost too.... Soo many things are lost. I wish You'd do "normal" lens camera (at least too...) sessions... With love from Denmark!! <3

Great to see you making new windsurf videos😊... Can I ask you about how to stop the harness riding up?... is there a good brand/design you would recommend?... Thanks

[Martnk]

great video! good to see you back on the board :)

[horsemadf]

Good to see you're back. It didn't look windy until you bore off..😄 There mustn't be a big wind range as you were planing the whole time..in our gusty conditions you can be hanging on for grim death one sec then you have to get out of the harness and come in over the board the next..0-gusting 25kts plus

Great to see you back on water!! Great movie, and how did you save that sit on water - that was really nice, I am big fan of that ;-) I am visiting Vassiliki tommorow :-D

Had to rewind one year to this videos since yesterday at Vass it was exactly one of those days. Super windy and super gusty. Wind yet increased during the afternoon, so my 4.2sqm sail was way to big by then. I tried to follow all the rules but fell into old habits of a wide grip. Even getting onto the plane was difficult because I was always scared to catapult right from the start. Any ideas on how to handle this kind of conditions of being way over powered?
