Will be interesting to see how the windsurfers go this year in the new channel, which is supposed to be deep enough for them.

This is awesome!
Seriously, good luck to all involved.
Slowy - you should be there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so there IS water on Mars !!
Seriously....as if the kiters weren't fast enough already... then they go and build this!
The difference is that they are inviting windsurfers along unlike those at the other canal
I dont think many windsurfers will show up.
The beach dosent look too zimmer frame friendly.
Basil has his sailboarding equipment with him so it should be interesting to see how well he goes down the strip . The wind was gusty at the start on the old run and had a dead spot 350m in , I am worried that it may be even worse now the run is further up towards the hills.
at least they know how to go fast, unlike you mirror boys
"Its too shallow, its too deep , its too long , its too wide, its too windy, how do we stop at the end , there is no bowls club near by".

'Kiters speeds not great (best just over 50); but Anders Bringdal on a windsurfer is flying. He's had a 50+ peak and 48 average.'
Yep, it sounds like it's the windsurfers that are breaking records for now.
