This is just one of the best things in Windsurfing I have watched in a time. Björn is right: Welcome back to the old days when I enjoyed watching Slalom action. However, with the drone footage of today it is so much better. And most importantly every recreational surfer can relate to it, at least much more than all the insane double or triple loops., not to mention all those new school freestyle moves. Keep on doing!

[@Luigi-xy6gs]

Slalom x is hard core windsurfing,love the format

[@thomasbohn5034]

Windsurfing is back 🤘 Epic! Thank you Nico and Lars 🙏

[@bob2787]

Awesome explanation of how the races flow , easy for everyone to follow! Also very interested in the fin rake tip, I had no idea! Also great job Lars, for staying up and editing so late.

[@ElectroHouseFanXXX]

How do you tune the rake of the fin? Tightening one screw more then the other?

[@boardhead911]

I've followed you for years..you are my favorite windsurfer these days..this from a 75 year old boardhead who has sailed since the early 80s.

[@bouzo4552]

good on you mate . keep going, legend!!

[@paologobbo]

Simply amazing! I want to be back on windsurf as soon as possibile. LONG LIVE FIN

[@Clint_Moto34]

Slalom X was wild to watch! Love it! I hope to get some helmet POV anytime in the Future.

[@Paul-ry5cx]

now thats a great idea, the whole fleet doesnt need to do it, but who ever does it first will have the footage we all crave..

[@user-oe1mb9hu9i]

Great editing. Excellent mix between the different elminations and WHICH one's we are watching mixed in with Ben's commenting = 100% good. Short comments after every race. I think Lars has found the perfect balance. Well done to everybody and thanks for a great video. Slalom X is definitely the way forward for fin racing.

[@LarsWcmn]

❤

[@slogo8879]

Great video report! ..although sure many of us watched it live. Very interesting with the sausage, I believe one more sausage AFTER the last gybe would make it much more exciting with a more uncertain result, since as you know we almost never have any changes after that last gybe. Good luck for the next ones!🙏🤙

[@peterolsson852]

Loving the Slalom X format🤙👏

[@joebeech7423]

Great to watch. Remember watching Bjorn, Anders etc racing in Western Australia in the 90’s. This format reminds me of many Ledge to Lancelin races.

[@steffenernst3234]

well done!! awesome work of Lars to edit this in a short time

[@LarsWcmn]

❤

[@ordinaryswedishwindsurfer]

looks like you guys enjoyed the new format even though I didn't go as planned all the time , you also looking more exhausted in the interviews after the races, guess it's really hard out there . BTW you looks like the hulk with impact west under the rash😁😁

[@hamster696]

Great video as always, hard work much appreciated. Give a video tour of the beach and inshore area explaining all the pro’s & con’s of riding there for all of us who have never been there please.

[@adbouwens1111]

Yeah.Fantastic. Finally surfing on real fins. Just ordinary real fins. Thats surfing! . Planing, jumping and blasting.

[@hazimtugun7694]

Super cool to watch! I loved your last bit about how one has to process the waves and adjust at that speed. Pretty amazing what you guys are doing out there harnessing what mother nature has to offer! Thanks for sharing the details of the race and all the fun! I can't wait to get out on the water myself soon!

[@f.p.6116]

Slalom x is great windsurfing, I love the format

[@maxlindroth1594]

Amazing event and you guys captured it in a really nice way. I love it! Looking forward to upcoming race days. Extra points for the before and after race chats, it really makes everything more interesting and fun to watch.

[@EmileHurtel]

You got me reconciled with PWA today. Real windsurfing and long live the fin🎉

[@sebastianschwertfuhrer1676]

Awesome! Love the fin and love the Slalom X format! Cool jumps over the sausage. Sad to see you catching some bad luck here and there, but you do look strong out there. Go for the win!

[@ChristianSkodde]

Fantastic fun! Super exciting to follow, and I love this concept. Anything can happen all the time. Keep going, small margins and you’re right up there 💪🏻

[@JorisTuymans]

[@ikbelnwindsurf]

I'm speechless, what an amazing event. Finaly pure fin racing

[@NikVumRhing]

It is so cool to see you guys surfing with intresting Info about the competition and funny behind the scenes 🤙 well done Nico and Team

[@horsemadf1]

Absolutely brilliant! So good to see fins maxed out in challenging conditions. Hopefully this format will bring more attention to the fin.

[@mtrybu]

I love the format, the race is more technical and you have to show a wider variety of skills. As a I fin windsurfer, I can relate more to Slalom X. Love it!!!

[@juanpsua]

[@urmastiirik]

Very nice first day, I have been looking forward to this video for months now :) Also thanks for mentioning your top speed, gives a nice perspective to the race. Maybe it would also be possible to add board, sail size and wind speed info to each race you show in video? Would give even more perspective and engagement with your riding. Can’t wait for the next video, good job guys!

[@klimaanlagenjochen]

Hi Nico, I love Slalom X. Great format and action. Even I'm still using my Fanatic Hawk from time to time which has been designed for super X, years ago. It's very interessanting that you changed the rake of your fin. Die anyone so before foiling? Looks Like this has been transfered now back to the fins. Good look for the next eleminations. Jochen

[@capn_ron]

Great video and great racing!

[@DucoVolker]

Great vid, x format rocks love to see everybody struggling 😂🎉😊

[@richoux212]

Love the sausage and the chicane in the waves….makes slalom very entertaining
