I think he knew it was a good run - how fast did he go for his GPS at the end

and like me, he has trouble reading it. You've got to get the water off the aquapac and then get it at just the right angle to the sun...

He is the second fastest jiber (alpha racing) in the world. He has done some crazy numbers.

Yes I noticed that too - the bear away was dead set scary, on the video the nose lifts when he bears away and sheets out a smidge and I reckon the vid doesn't do it justice

^^^It was a joke people, He's doing stuff I'll never be able to do. Obviously the clown face has a different meaning to you guys.....If that's the case let me know what it really means. This is the Internet after all, I should have know my comment would have been taken out of context. ......let me know what that means as I have no idea?

The "best" but I would put my money on any top 20 PWA slalom sailor under race conditions where you can't choose the best spot to jibe.
