Two legends at an legendary event
Nico, glad to see him on your channel
I got the same rule for the fin size from Nico's channel a few years back 😂
Haha.. Thanks… good to know I’m
Not going mad!! 😂
I thought so too. He has a video about fins.
@@WindsurfingTV i just thought about the fins i have that are working, half plus some applies.
forgot about that, easy way to think about it. Thanks for the reminder. 👍🏼
2:08 TschkTschkTschk Bwaaaaahh
How tall are you to be 97 kg and look athlethic?
@@glow_upacademy 189
@@glow_upacademy I'd guess he's around 190cm (6'3)
😂😂😂
Thanks for the video! Since I'm already at 100 kgs, I'm going to tell my wife that's completely normal and that I gonna make the world tour ah ah! Thanks a lot guys 😂
Very interesting!
Moin Ben, Moin Nico
Aileron vs foil? Some of the riders in the results are listed as Aileron (Jordy) while others are listed as foil. Is there something new out there that is being used by the pros?
Great video! Is it also true for the last 1-2 years that the Speedster is more racy than the V8?
Yes!
One of the good guys and a great vid.
Fat is fast -- Who would have thought in the golden age of skinny blonde surfers that more meat would be the secret.
65kg and on a plant based wholefood diet - i dont think i'll ever be fast. But how fast is needed for fast type of fun? 3:51 Word on the street is those NP sails sound too serious. I'll be fast enough fun on easy Ezzy fun machines 🤪
I’m Vegetarian
+1 for ezzy sails
@@Nico_GER7 You've done well bulking up. Looking good on the board mate. I will try to eat many many nuts but must go sail now 🤩
JimsWindsurfing! You can go fast enough. But probably don’t win a PWA race or a long distance. Still you get away with smalle equipment, you get going earlier and there is nothing stopping you from being a freestyle and wave champ 😁❤️
"I'm slowly going up, great" f... I'm goi going slowly down, great, haha...
Fin size for Carbon Art 52 = 28 . 54 wide = 30 fin . Try before you buy
Short lines rule!!!
Really funny that Nico doesn't remember his own rule concerning fin size vs. board width😂 I think he recommended the calculation here: czcams.com/video/PEZrY4FpNmk/video.htmlsi=Kyl7X0xvCgX27mbz
See 9:33min
Haha.. I’m glad you guys remember!! 😁… I guess it must of been someone else rule that Nico heard it from as well 😂😂
Awesome! Thanks
Taty 99 kg? That is insane for his height. He claimed to be 70 kg a couple of years ago.
Time for weight classes
Heeeyyyy…… Another Greeeaaaaat video… I’m 101kg …. Clearly faster than you guys!!! Theorically!!!😁😁😆No need to argue : let me dream😛😛😛
Muscle Mass is fast ... Fat just gets in the way, but hey ho; if that's how the "elephants" that sail want to look at it they're free to think so.
I'd love to see them on a wave board ....... One thing going straight at speed with all that fat, quite another making it "work" in the waves.
Speed Surfing should have the windsurfer's weight beside the noted speed and weight categories.
Weight is fast... how ever you get it!
@@WindsurfingTV Seriously Ben. These guys are fast because they have the technique of when they were young. It's what they have done for a living and have done all their lives.
Fat is not fast. Weight is. Just like you say.
Look at Nico Prien. He's an athlete.
He's tall which also helps, but his weight goes with his muscle mass and he can move it appropriately. Beer Belly is fast in a straight line, and then there is all the flab that goes with it.
1 question to the riders weight: why is heavier = faster ? Is it simply because they can hold bigger sails with their body weight ? How about getting planning and weight ? When you see children, they are planning extremely early but they never get fast
Mass wants to go into the same direction as it is. Windgusts just have less impact on that. So you can handle a bigger sail and it take less effort. The downside is, if you dont use it right, a sag of potatos will never be fast. 😀 So for the well trained and strong PWA riders it's a good thing, for the lazy couch binch-eating netflix rookie surfer it is not.
It's also to do with leverage...all the really fast guys are tall as well as weight.
