WOW What an opportunity for ANY windsurfing company or actually any company to enter into the world of sponsorship!!!
i am talking of a young man named Bill!
i believe sailing for 2 years on older gear and in such a short time is making a big impact on our awesome sport
99 kms in yesterday's conditions with a 40.9 2's I mention again approximately 2 years sailing I'll get Matty to fill in any details but WOW and he has 2 younger bros that are right on his heels.
Great opportunity for someone...

Thanks Dave,
I introduced Bill, Milos and Otis with my son to windsurfing late in 2016, All four have powered into the sport since then!
Here is a clip of Budgy in January 2017 about a month or two after the boys first pulled up a sail.


Check Out Bill at 6:14 and 7:47 in this clip.
The whole windsurfing community have been awesome, either give the boys gear or selling it at very cheap prices!
Special thanks to Mark Jordan for his sponsorship of Bill and GPS racing which Milos was the lucky winner of a new sail.
Watch out for these boys if they stick with windsurfing, future champions in the making
Bill cracked 40 knots 2sec peak on 23-11-18 at Budgy but had already had a 40 knot max speed at Lake George on 19-2-18, but let's not forget Milos cracked 38 knots 2 sec peak on 22-11-18, and watch this space for Otis!
We need to encourage young people into our sport or it will die with us! Please try and teach them and give them the opportunities with old equipment as they will be the ones that will keep our sport alive.
