...and weight has no relevance there. 
A speed belly and big cahounas certainly helps

I heard a couple of people died on a Wally,
from old age.
That'd be better than dying on shore from old age.
That's a great vid and great looking comp!! Brings back memories of the original Wally for us old buggers.

How many people have been killed or badly injured doing GPS speedsailing?
I don't know if your question is serious or you are taking the piss.
Assuming the former, anecdotally I am not aware of any deaths since I joined 5 years ago.
It was as serious (or as much of a piss-take) as your claim that you need big cahounas for GPS speedsailing.
so from the video it looks like there are a lot of LT's out there already
does that mean the\y need the insert issue sorted ? or was it just Australian boards
Interesting news from the Youth Worlds - Nicolo Renna, Windsurfer One Design racer (3rd in the 2015 Italian Lightweight nationals), scored a silver in the RSX to go with his win in the 2018 European Techno 293 championships.
the most exciting thing about that photo is the person taking the photo , not the person that took the photo! good looking lake :)
Awww what?!!! Bring back the other photo heaps better!
not nice to draw on people!
A few decades on, the whole sport has gone in a circle, and Cesare is still in Torbole and smiling. Nice one!
Is this the same as the windsurfer LT in the starboard catalogue for 2019? Looks the same

I get the sense that you have not read all 200 responses....which is OK ..it is the same board.

I guess that was mentioned in the middle somewhere. Opps
Who's going up for the all boats regatta at Lake Cootharaba this weekend?
Anyone keen to try out their new LT's?
Any raceboards going?
I haven't been paying attention, so wasn't expecting it.
533 Likes for this in one day. Windsurfers are going gangbusters around the world!
FYI just over a month away from the opening competition for the 2018 - 2019 Season in NSW
Gosford Sailing Club, October Long Weekend!
2 1/2 days of competition, fun and games and a chance to enjoy some good times with likeminded sailors and the family.
There will be the opportunity to enjoy a few activities (not just windsurfing) close to shore so the spectators can join in and have a few laughs!
Rhe raceboarders are kicking off their season with the first heat of their series at Gosford so expect some serious competition.
just awaiting some final confirmations keep an eye out on Windsurfing NSW, this thread, Windsurfer Class and Raceboards Class for more updates and notice of race, registration details.

Chris, I didn't bite after your response, because danger and associated courage, is very individual. However Detlev's recent narrative below, comes very close to what I was alluding to.

That's a nice write-up, but honestly, it still doesn't really seem that GPS speedsailing needs bigger kahunas than lots of other ways to sail.

seems to me in a cold winter westerly ,as described in the write up, they would be the opposite of big
