Looks like that list has not been updated, Antoine's 52 not there.

Always a humbling thought my best 500 fromm 2009 on the gps sits just behind AA's 2008 record, he has definately stretched the record ahead again. Will definately be a battle on this year as more potential talent heads to the desert ditch to go up against the world champs'. Let's hope the wind does it thing for all who attend over the six weeks to have a crack and give it a go.

Luderitz awaits for the the Aussies to have an official go, ......won't be easy that's for sure.

A2's was a windsurf 500m record not an overall 500m record like Vestas'.
Phenomenal speeds from a2 and the crew but will anything break Vestas' record?

Not in the near future!

See how long it was between Yellow Pages/Simon McKeon's record and Finians next record! I think this will be another of those long gaps in the record book.
