First Look at the CANAL & Testing Gear | Lüderitz Ep.2

[@vandervekendavid6841]

Great to have someone to follow our guys out there Vincent is one of my buddy's. Say hello to him from me. Thanks Nils!

[@WindsurfingNils]

i will tell him ;)

[@vandervekendavid6841]

@@WindsurfingNils and have some fun and get a record yourself while you're there! 🤪🤙💪

[@kev-the-windsurfer.]

Excellent video, super awesome footage!! Nice tour of the canal, I didn't realise it was so shallow!! Looking forward to seeing the canal footage on the next one....I hope you're feeling 100% by the time the wind comes for the canal runs.

[@Hookipa18]

Great video! Very interesting to get a bit mor insight about the canal.

[@vinnydub7192]

Great video buddy - I’m watching with great anticipation for the speed canal days - good luck and great work with the vblogs

[@WindsurfingNils]

tomorrow should be the first bit of action on the canal!

[@dennisdepauw9785]

Nice footage!! Keep it up mate

[@WillemAsselbergs]

Great music choice Nils. Looks like you are getting some serious sun out there. Watch out, it is intense, high UV in the south. Better cream and/or cover up with a hat. You cheeks have already taken a beating.

[@tonyk1002]

great job Nils

[@speedquestwindsurfing]

No wind. Very familiar with that.

[@brad2064]

Would be good to see some more explanation of the speed gear. Why an asymmetrical fin? Why such a small volume board? Are people wearing weight jackets etc.

[@WindsurfingNils]

coming in one of the next videos!

[@lukeheatley4148]

Great stuff Nils. Glad you are feeling better

[@prufungstrainingbuchfuhrun226]

Super interessant Nils auch einmal zusätzliche Infos zu Lüderitz zu bekommen. Als erfahrener Windsurfer und KZbinr könntest du für besseren Ton noch ein Fell aufs Mirco stülpen. Ich wünsche dir eine persönliche Bestzeit, wenn es ernst wird!

[@notyouraveragewindsurfer]

pretty cool! those sand banks look sketchy

[@konradmajsterszef7899]

Thanks for this vlog ..

[@jorgweckenmann2325]

Vielen Dank für Deine Eindrücke von Lüderitz - so bekommt man einen sehr guten Eindruck von der gesamten Location und den beiden Spots. Freue mich auf den nächsten Bericht. Gute Besserung und viel Erfolg!!!

[@flyingmeniskusable]

Schön, dass es dir wieder besser geht. Geile Strecke da und coole Aufnahme mit der Cam am Rücken. Bin schon gespannt auf deine runs im Kanal.

[@WindsurfingNils]

coming soon ;)

[@kaihapunkt3746]

Danke für die Videos, man bekommt einen tollen Eindruck vom gesamten Setting und der Stimmung vor Ort!

[@axelgoeskite]

sieht aber eher traurig aus die "Infrastruktur" 🙂

[@WindsurfingNils]

Danke, im nächsten versuche Ich mal mehr Fahrer zu interviewen!

[@vinnydub7192]

Love some instruction videos on speed needle water starts if possible ?

[@WindsurfingNils]

that's the really tricky part on the canal, I will see if I can film some water starts and talk about it a bit tomorrow!

[@ryohunter3430]

Great! Thx for the video!

[@windsurfer]

Great work Nils will be a great experience for you being there. Say hello to Jason Juretic if he’s there✌️

[@MrSaltwateraddict]

awesome video, nice to see you all having fun, not waiting for `the day`, keep up the good work !

[@WindsurfingNils]

yes sure, why not train and have fun while waiting for the day x

[@perryquinn8401]

Great film is that luderize or elsewhere ,my record could be at risk if you get stronger wind ,ha,ha,sail on perry

[@alexalejandro2910]

Where is the canal located?

[@windaddict]

Why is the "half lay down gybe" the standard way to slow down? Wouldn't turning into the wind straight away slow you down more?

[@marcverbeke2970]

Always love your videos. I really want to get into speed sailing but it looks far to expensive for me (and I'm probably too old!). Any suggestions on how to go fast on a very small budget.....

[@mathiaspaulsen3112]

Unser Mann vor Ort, super. Vielleicht erlaubt es Deine Zeit uns ein bisschen was von Lüderitz (bzw. von Deiner Location in der Du/Ihr residiert) und den Begebenheiten dort zu zeigen.

[@javierromero1331]

I have seen several videos about this canal and still don't know in which country is located....

[@kristianvrum8979]

Namibia

[@simongodfrey3765]

Thanks Nils. Are you picking up any tips in your training? Please let us know.

[@WindsurfingNils]

some good stuff, will put it into the next videos!

[@tilmann13]

Bester Bericht bisher über die Ecke - auf Diaz Point hab ich jetzt richtig Bock. Auch filmtechnisch machst Du genau das, wovon ich die ganze Zeit träume: das 360°-Kamera-Material nutzen, um im Schnittprogramm hinterher nach hinten zu "schwenken" :)

[@WindsurfingNils]

danke für das feedback, Diaz Point macht schon richtig Spaß, gerade wenn es am Kanal nicht wirklich reicht...

[@MarioKuempel]

So nice!

[@berniste3855]

Klasse Video und Bericht👍 kann man direkt am Nest Hotel auch windsurfen? Bezw. Material ausleihen?

[@WindsurfingNils]

nein, ich glaube material leihen in Lüderitz ist nicht möglich, surfen könnte man hier theoretisch überall, da bräuchte man dann nur größere Bretter...

[@windwavewinter]

That's a pretty niffty thing you did with the cam while surfing (it's the 360 on a stick, isn't it?). Best sense of "surfing along with you" of all thecam footage so far 👍👍hope it doesn't pose too much of a risk in case of a crash ;)

[@WindsurfingNils]

yes, it's a super nice angle, thanks to Dirk for giving me this mount!

[@firstnamelastname2669]

Maybe would have been a good idea to take an inflatable roofrack....

[@WindsurfingNils]

would have been for sure!

[@AdrianTregoning]

Quite interesting, I didn't realise they have to pump water in the canal, thanks for sharing. Just a warning to anyone who wants to go to Lüderitz - leave your family at home. Terrible place. Once you're there you can do very little, and drive almost nowhere because of the so called "diamond areas". That was probably 28 years ago, maybe more. Better off driving to Walvis and hitting Donkey Bay 😋

[@ChocoSindos]

Why has Walvis Bay fallen out of favour? after all it holds the world record , is it far from luderitz?

[@JOHN-qs7yu]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@frontloop71]

wusste ich nicht dass man den kanal dauernd vollpumpen muss!

[@WindsurfingNils]

doch, da der Wasserstand im kanal höher ist als in der bucht und da viel Wasser über den tag verdampft...

[@Nilz4FR]

Ich werde den Sport nie verstehen. Geh mal kiten!

[@WindsurfingNils]

nein danke, ist mir zu langweilig...
