Sorry to be off topic but does anyone know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow forgot the password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me.
So I think I deserve to Win the trip because i rang you up and told you to go there! 😁 ...Love the Intro 🔥🔥
Pro windsurfers that got invited there anyway are excluded 😂
@@Nico_GER7 Sounds like I'm still Eligible then!! 💪🏻💪🏻
Not sure 🤔
Windsurfing.TV Ben you are eligible to be overtaken in subs by this little german bloke... I know, it‘s not a competition. I’m just kidding. So please let normal freeriders win the ticket. Team32 is supporting all windsurfing channels here 😎
@@professionalfreerider9133 The numbers don't lie mate... i'm cool with that. Nico is doing a great job. Fair play... deserves all the views he's getting! ...and Don't worry about the Free trip. I'm givingone away soon too! 😁
Why I need this?
This ist literally the most wonderful place. I am a Windsurfer too, I am not as brilliant as you are but i love surfing in the same way like you do. I also love to see and feel new places, other conditions and other kinds of surfing. And I love your videos! You do such brilliant work and everybody joins with you and feels your special spirit and vibe in every single video. That is what your speciality is!
I've been captivated by the thrill of windsurfing and wide open blue spaces since I was old enough to pull up a 'kiddie rig' in the 1980s. This opportunity would give me shrieks of delight and joy, and leave a boyish grin on my freckled face.
Wow. Warm water, wind, waves, windsurfing, wakeboarding. What a wonderful way to unwind
My last visit to Viana was 6 years ago. Would love to go there again. Such a great place! Hope to win the stay 😊
May be a little tip for you guys. Also drive up a little bit further North and also check out the spot Moledo. Even more secret 😜
Perfect holiday mix of my favorite sports: wake, wave and slalom windsurfing. Looks awesome! And family friendly. I wanna go.
What a beautiful video. The place looks awesome. All the best Nico 🤙🏻
Hi Nico,
sieht wirklich super aus.
Ich denke, dass ich seit dem mein Nachwuchs da ist und den damit verbundenen stressigen Tagen einfach dringend Erholung brauche :)
Glückwunsch zu 20.000 Abos !
Hi Nico, thanks a lot for all your videos. The quality of your content increased so much in the past year! Loving it !
I’d be super stock to be able to go à windsurf trip. I never have been able to travel outside my country, and this would be an exceptional opportunity for me, enjoying the stay over there.
I could even vlog and send you few clips / return on experience !
See you on the water 🤙🏼
I have been living in Malaysia for 4 years without windsurfing. I'm Irish and cant wait to get home in July to get my gear out again. This place looks awesome! Thank you for posting. Awesome channel BTW.
Intro was hilarious :)
I wouldn't mind going to Viana do Costelo for a windsurfing trip.. sandy beaches, lots of wind and sunny skies 😍
I've never been to Portugal and I'm so keen to go there with my wife who is also learning to windsurf (almost planning!). I love eco friendly places and it would be interesting to see what they do to reduce carbon footprint and obviously to try all of their gear on such a fantastic spot.
Wow!!!! 🙏😍 I’m so happy for this. Thank you Nico!!
This would be a paradise trip for me in more ways than one. I'd love to get the chance to visit my roots in Portugal, be able to visit the ocean once again after so many years, and get an experience of a lifetime!
Hey Nic. First of all I looooove your channel and your progressive way of teaching us. I had a series of unfortunate windless days in my holidays in Greece, more like SUP rather windsurf. The giveaway is my great comeback to improve and apply your tips I be been watching for a looking while now in The best spot ever!
THANKS,
IOANNIS
Hi Nico! What an awesome video this is! Like you said: Ole did a great job 👊. I booked a windsurfing wave clinic to Essaouira this spring which got cancelled because of Covid 19. Being able to go to this stunning place would make up for that in so many ways😁😎👊. Keep up the good work on your great windsurfing Channel!
Congrats on 20k subs. I would love to visit feelvianna. This year is my first full season windsurfing, and I completely fell in love with the sport. Sadly here in Bavaria I only get good wind every two to three weeks. That limits my time on the water and therefore limits me getting better. I would love to get out on the water and visit a country I‘ve never been to. Thank you for all the great content you provide and for atleast giving me a chance to win.
Perfect place to windsurf in Europe for the first time, 👍🏻 I have been traveling only to the Caribbean for windsurfing so far, but planning a Europe windsurf trip for years, so ready to win 😀and explore beautiful Viana and Portugal 😀 🤙🏻🏄⛵️🌊🛹👍🏻!!!! Ready to FeelViana!!!! 🤙🏻
In this challenging time with little relief I now can't think of a better way to let off all the steam the on a trip to that beautiful place. Thanks for the chance, good luck everyone!
Looks like a Spot to have much fun and the Hotel looks very nice too! They even support road biking!
Me and my friend are missing windsurfing so much during corona time. So it will be finally something really good for us to be on the water again and feel the wind and waves...and we can finally celebrate our 10 years universally. 🌊🌊🌊🌅🌅🌅🥂🥂🥂🌬🌬🌬
Me and my family live in a tiny village in norway called Bygland. The conditions here are horrible. The wind is super unstable and gusty, but that doesn't stop us from going out on the water. That's why we call ourselves "the dustbusters." We have traveled to Rhodos a couple of times. Those trips are just the best! Unfortunately we can't go so often. A trip like this would mean the world to me, my dad and my brother!
Looks awesome, a dream location for us windsurfers...
Great video Nico, as always, keep up the great work 🤙
Realy have to go windsurfing those waves there while my girl is also enjoying the place. The spot is on my list several years so now it's the time to pull out all the stops ;-)
Hey Nico, hast glaub schon paar Kommentare von mir gesehen. Hast mir schon mega geholfen, hab jetzt endlich die powerhalse geschafft und hätte so krank bock mit nem freund noch eine Woche surfen zu gehen an dem kranken spot. Wär so anders geil, deine videos sind beste immer weiter :)
Übelst die Windsurfvibes bekommen. Meiner Meinung nach eins deiner besten Videos 👍👍🤙
yeah! danke :-)
Need that trip! I wan’t to catch up again to windsurfing, after almost 10 years not wearing my harness and I think this is the best place to start again. I’m feeling lucky!!
Place looks really really cool!
Would love to go here because it seems to have it all! Wind, surf, action, sun, food and hospitality! 🙌
There's nothing better than sharing the love of water sports with your loved ones in a dream place like viana 🤗. The short trip would be a perfect escape from the everyday work and because my boyfriend loves nothing more than windsurfing, we would love to win it 🙃☀️🤞
Hi Nico, what an intro, haha. Really nice gesture with giveaway and if you would decide that this would be me, I'd be sure it is because of my simplicity, love of being on the water and always looking for new spots. Aloha🤙
OMG what a place and environmentally friendly? what a dream!
I think I deserve the trip and the stay in that amazing place because I have been working since the pandemic started in a grocery store as a essential worker and I don't even make a real living wage!
I deserve a vacation from this!!!! did I mention that I don't have a car and a pull my gear with my bike?
Thanks for the footage peeps! impressive as always!
My wife just starting kiting and i just started windsurfing and this would be the perfect place for us to have som time of together and having fun.
Congrats for winning the trip!!
I just started windsurfing with my father who is Windsurfing since he is 20 years old and this would be the perfect opportunity to take my practice to the next level. Also wanna thank you for the cool videos
Geiler Schnitt at the beginnig!! Guter Tip! THX
Thanks for a FANTASTIC video of a FANTASTIC spot - we would definitely like to go😁 We are a family of five with three kids who have just started windsurfing - we love it!! How nice it would be to visit and FeelViana😘
Another sick video 🤙🤙🌊would love to go there to try some of the neilpryde and jp gear in the sun!
I am just learning Windsurf and it is amazing !!! The place looks very cool 😎
Seems to be a perfect spot for family vacation. Need to check it out before 😉
Hi Nico, this looks like an amazing place for me and my girlfriend to improve our windsurfing skills, with the double and simultaneous, condition of this place! After your viedo, we are goint to planning to go here as soon as we can!!! Thanks for the video report!
I need this vacation a lot, not windy at all in Norway. Would love to go to Portugal and windsurf! Love your videos!
Sieht nach einem perfekten Aufsteigerrevier aus, genau was ich gebrauchen könnte. :)
That looks like a great location. My family would love to vacation there after Covid eases up. I have 2 daughters and a nephew who love windsurfing and being ecofriendly. My oldest just missed out on her senior year in high school and this trip would more than make up for it. See ya soon!
Entering the competition because it looks like an awesome place and I haven't had a proper windsurfing trip in a long time. I need holidays! Great videos Nico!
Hi Nico 🤙 I'm Thijs Hanemaaijer from the Netherlands. I'm 15 years old and I surf since I was 6 and I really love the sport. The spots where you can find me are Brouwersdam for slalom and when the wind goes stronger then 22 knots you can find me on the sea at Hoek van Holland for a wave session. I'm training really hard for slalom and doing some slalom competitions. I think it's awesome to go surfing in Portugal and experience how the spot for PWA looks like. Winning this price will help me to make the next step in my surf career. 🤙🤙
Its a realy good spot I was yesterday at grevelingendam
I love windsurfing and really need to take a break and see this fantastic place.
Your video "The Thrive" motivats me everytime before I drive to the next small lake near by. I wanna thrive and become a better windsurfer. With this trip to Portugal I could get closer to my target.
looks like the perfect center for everyone, waves, freestyle, slalom, beautiful scenery, and heaps of activities when there is no wind, who doesnt want to go there? sign me up!
Dear Nico, what a cool place. Need to win because of the lack of wind in the Netherlands currently. Great review of the place. Love to see more video’s like this.
Since I am 15 I cannot travel often. Windsurfing is my true passion and I love doing it. It is an amazing sport. I would love to go to FEELVIANA because it would be a great experience. I don't live by the sea so I can only windsurf while the summer but I spend every day of it windsurfing Thank you!🤙😂
Hey! I think that would be the perfekt place to push my windsurfing on a higher level !😁 I do enjoy your content! Moreover I've never been to Portugal so far, so it would be a cool and new experience for me.. This o´place is looking phenomenal :)
Hey Nico! It's a dream: Windsurf, Surf, skate. I haven't been on such a surftrip for years. It'd be just awesome to live this adventure. Grüße aus Mexiko!
Wow! Need my first waves and such a beautiful spot and finally holidays! I've only surf experience in northern germany and denmark so this would be perfect!
Thank you, Niko for the grate videos! You inspired me to start my own chanel and make videos at the spots we and my friends ride! Lets make windsurfing grate again! Not that it is not grate now :D
That is so exiting to enjoy Windsurf there.
I’d love to stay there for a proper vacation with lots of activities to do! I love the ecological friendly mission of this place. Also I’d really like to get back on the windsurf journey!
We need this trip! My boyfriend and I have a long wish to go to a spot with wind everyday! Went last year to Sardenia by car for 2 weeks to catch wind for only 2 days. Same story again this year. We need to catch up those lack-of-wind days!
Nice... it looks realy like One of the best Windsurfing Place. 2 Month ago i startet foiling and i Need go so again, so i Need höre Experience!
I would love the place and it is now one of two dreaming destinations I would like to visit (together with Garda) and here I can see more options for wndsurfing improvements and maybe turn for wave experience :)
Hej Nico, just moved to Sweden from Germany, with my wife and daughter. So lots of driving back and forth and of course carrying stuff in the last 3 months is finally over. So now would be a great time for a holiday in Portugal windsurfing and getting better at it. Nice video! Hej då!
Hey nico🤚🏼 im a 15 year old windsurfer from norway! I love wave,slalom and skateboarding! I think this place could be a great place for me and my dad to come and enjoy and practice! Love the videos, keep up the great work man!!!❤️
I deserve it as my first windsurf trip out of my country. Anyway thank you for your CZcams channel full of windsurf energy !
Hello! I have never been to any windsurf spot in my life. So after my kids are finally little bit older now, I am think that this vacation will be huge rest for me, specially after 15 years of watching my children 😁 growing up!
Nice video as always ! This place looks awesome, I would love to windsurf there :)
Wow, really nice area. Great footage as always too.
I just got back to windsurfing after several years of break a few weeks ago with some friends, and we're trying to get better at it! I just love the sport too much to stay away from it for a long time :D So this trip would be a great opportunity to get better!
You and Mario helped me a lot to learn Windsurfing in the past two years. I would love to win the trip to bring my windsurf skills to the next level!
@nico Prien in first very nice quality and cut of the video... Nice to the a awesome place like this... I think this spot is perfect to get back to my old hobby... I windsurfing since I was 7. 2006 I made my surf license at the Gardasee... 4 years in a row holiday in Riva was a good time to practice a lot... In best case I get the chance to learn weave riding... And make a drive with the wake board behind a boot.. We only have leverkusen Langenfeld with a nice track... Show us more videos as nice as this... Greets.
Once again a very nice video. keep it up! If there is something to win, I am happy to make myself available 😁
Wonderful spot Nico!
Nico that place looks awesome for every kind of surfer there is, flat water, waves enough things to do when there is no wind. Even perfect for beginners I guess so you can bring your girlfriend with you on the water. No complaints about going again on the water on your holiday together, she can just join you!🙌
Thanks for sharing this spot! 🤙
Hi Nico! I would love to go there with my mom to show here my windsurfing in a nice and warm place!
I would love to go there with my family and let my little daughter continue to learn windsurfing - and I would shred the jp boards ;-) What a beautiful spot.
Hi Nico, i dont want the trip, but i want to say Thank You for all things that you do to share and improve the skills that people like me... when you make a clinic we will be there with my wife!.... all the best ! Guille from Argentina
Nice Intro! I love windsurfing and think this spot would be awesome!
Viana do Castelo, a great windsurf spot, nice people and delicious food!!! I know the hotel, it's realy nice but I have still not been staying the night there. But I Hope that will change soon!!! Enjoy it Nicolás!!Tschüss Carola Lembrecht
Sorry, I wanted to say Nico not Nicolás 🤩
I would love to go there, I want to start slalom and I think it's the perfect place to try all the gear. I would go with mi father to remember him windsurfing, he windsurfed 30 years ago and he would fly on the water with a new equipment.
My father and I are really keen on windsurfing, but we seldom can go out because the nearest place to go windsurfing is about 3 hours from were we live, in addition he does have to work a lot during the year and he doesn't have much free time.
That's why I think we would love to go in that amazing place, so that we can spend 4 days together doing what we love.
Nice!!!
I would love too winn. Most because I live in Northern Sweden with cold water and bad wind! And also for that place have good bicycle and windsurfing. My hobbies❤️
I am a subscriber and could really use a good Windsurfing vacation. Corona and Kurzarbeit (German Furlough) have not been easy so far. Great video, the place looks very cool!
I would love to win this windsurf trip with a friend to enjoy this beautiful place! Wave surfing and slalom surfing on the same spot is awesome. Could be the first time for me in Portugal, AND all the efforts for the protection of the environment is really appreciable, I really appreciate it.
I used to windsurf long time ago and restarted 2 years agi and now learning planning gybe and others. I would be able to take hige advantage of a week woth constand wind that would for sure put me to the next level. That’s the main reason why it would be great to win the giveaway :)
Not going to be secret anymore 😁😁!!! Great vídeo!! 👏👏🚀💨
Love the video. This would be great for our family. Although would have to book extra rooms. If we don't win then my wife is sending us back to Vass!!.
Fantastic place! I would like to take my daughter, who is starting to become an experienced windsurfer, to this perfect place. Love from Norway
Hi Nico, nice spot and video! Would enjoy the trip as I broke off my fin at full speed in Cadzand yesterday. So could need a new spot and a new fin.
hey Nico,
Really good sell of that spot, looks great even at my grand old age of 47 it still makes me dream of getting back on a windsurf after switching to kitesurfing !!!
Another great video Nico! Thanks! each one you make is better and better... fortunately maciek meanwhile practices his technique winning in Croatia, but... ;) ;)
by the way - what board did you get with that 7.4 sail? (what volume?)
Well, to each their own 👍. 71 slalom board with the 7.4 😊
Was right on the verge of cracking the gybe, and then the wind died in my area. Haven't had any wind for about 2 months now, but I'd love to change that up in Viana and maybe finally get my gybes down.
Looks like a nice place, would love to go there and check it out.
"You Sold It to me Nico" 2021" now "Hopefully", I like the whole Concept, I think this will be the new Canaries" for most W/S-K/Surfers, it looks to be for me," Nice vid.
My whole heart is in windsurfing and i would love to experience these winds and waves . Someone just broke my heart unfortunately and i wouldn’t just love to get away and just let the wind take away the pain.
Guten Tag Nico - "Make Windsurfing Great Again!" - Winning would grow my passion .....1) For Others - Career change & started teaching RYA courses last year at my local UK pond , great to enthuse new guys. 2) For me - pushing myself further - blast faster, better jumps, gybe on the foil & learn to forward (on a starboard tack!) 3) For my gorgeous wife, Viana Do Castelo & Feelviana is the perfect place to share my passion. Fingers crossed to Win.
Locker hängen.
Hi Nico. Nice Video. I think i had to win the Journey, because i am now at the Isselmeer and it is only 20°C. So today i stand my first powerjibe and in have to train more in warmer conditions. Thanks a lot.
Nive vid Nico, and great music !
I would Love to go and have a time out and just enjoy the stay. Good Food, Great Surf and nice People would make my Brocken Heart Smile again.
Portugal- Viana - I was there many years ago. Had great fun. What you forgot, it is a lovely town and I had over the street one of my best barbecue there. So I Must go back!
Hi all! Great video, great place. Looks amasing! Hope to switch from not windy Moscow conditions to sunny and windy portugal.
And by the way what are conditions in October?
Nice giveaway by Viana & your channel! Thumbs up! Would love to win it and do my first wave riding sessions there, seems like great place for beginners as well. I think my GF would love it too :). Even if we don't win it Portugal is definitely on my list next!
Hi Nico, what a pleasure to watch your vlogs. I’m a young French waterman and love to practice all kind of sensation activities. It would be amazing to come for the first time in Portugal for windsurfing ! My girlfriend and I would spend all the time in the water and have great fun ! Let’s give a try, see you Baptiste
