Heavy is fast: With 95.5kg on 8.7m sail |

[@slogo8879]

Hey Nico, another nice one! with great timing for me 😊3rd night in hospital with broken ribs due to high speed slalom collision induced catapult.. a day before I was to collect my replacement vest...- by the way to eveyone: never surf without a collision vest. Will be waiting in anticipation for great videos/insider reports from Garda and wish you a great and succesful event!🤙

[@bradleypatterson5706]

Love NeilPryde sails. Always liked their logo on the sail…looks like an eye.

[@remcokeijzer]

Getting funnier! I like it!

[@lucdesmedt1577]

We are all hoping for a proper full PWA season this year. Good luck to everyone!

[@sirrobin9831]

Just watched the PWA races biting my nails. Great job from you and Michele representing Germany!

[@rub3n182]

I would live a video about your gym life and program! Great video!😊

[@theswedishwhale8377]

Nice video. I find that being lighter helps with being nimble and more agile.

[@rorybarnable1414]

Great! Sign it!

[@dairyairman]

I like that close range shot at 10:45!

[@Jonas-tm3wq]

It’s a lot of fun watching your Videos after meeting you in Person. Was so much fun talking to you and seeing you go mental on the foil in Tarifa. 😄

[@lars-gorangustafsson4650]

Nice video. Good luck in Lake Garda!

[@victorsacha8465]

Thanks for another great video and good luck at Garda

[@WindsurfGenerationX]

Heavy ist fast - then i must be very fast😂!

[@flaviodias6884]

Hey, Nico. What was the wind speed that day? I'm in doubt about size of sail and my weight for windfoiling. Thanks, for each video you have made !!!

[@comelefort3335]

good luck nico!!

[@arnold1964able]

Talking about weight, I do think that more weight helps a lot in windsurfing. I am a fit, lean guy, 177 cm and a weight of 58 kg. Moves like fast tacks are quite difficult because you have to hang so exaggerated to the outside to get enough power to go close to the eye of the wind. The margin of errors is very small. Also if I make planing gybes I have to get both feet in the footsteps before hooking into the harness otherwise the risk of being pulled forward is too big. And I have a hard time to give the firm pull necessary to get the cambers of my V8 to rotate at the end of the gybe. Fortunately for moves like the duck gybe weight is not that important.

Nico prien is the coolest german rider!!!!

[@richardm9688]

Good foiling session. The gym is going well. You're looking more muscular now.

[@thomasfolan2716]

Good luck with the racing season Nico !

[@steffenernst3234]

Cool vid. I wonder if the new mast made a difference? Great angle shots

[@robertocoslovich3143]

Good luck for the new PWA season, I'm rooting for you 🤙

[@johanvanmol]

Good luck during the new PWA season. Let’s hope the additional focus you got from quitting your job @Starboard makes a difference 🤙.

[@luciennieman4490]

Nice video again. Foiling looks so easy. I had my first foiling session after 2 years. Started with an old sail because I don’t want to damage my nice evo13 sails. Goodluck on the PWA and looking forward to the new video👌🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@kaettix]

Wie immer mega nice !!!

[@paololucchese2690]

on Lake Garda when everyone was still you went .....

[@MARG2327PA]

Good luck in Italy Nico😊 don’t eat too many pastas 😂😂😂

[@erkaltarm2872]

hi guys the name of this channel should be "surf magazine"🤪

[@tobiasstang_gmund]

After a brain surgery in march I can’t get on the water the next one or two months. But I see your videos and want to go back now!!! 🤩🤙

[@WindsurfGenerationX]

Viel Spaß am Gardasee, bin heute von dort zurückgekommen. 6 Tage Wind! Heute war bis 14 Uhr nichts. Ich hoffe es wird ab Mittwoch besser. Viel Erfolg!

[@jeroenhessel7535]

hey Nico, another cool video. Was this a new board that you picked up where the foot straps still had to be mounted? Or do you move your foot straps every time according to the weather conditions?

[@marijnrijswijk3408]

Lucky guy ,with the forgotten rig 😂

[@randomhuman8684]

Hi Nico, wie immer Top Video! Die Edits waren auch sehr lustig. Wie trocknest du deine Segel? Lässt du sie zusammengerollt, hängst du sie auf? Gibt es irgendwelche Tricks zur Materialpflege?

[@mqrten]

I mean... 10:44 this one surely makes up for all the messed up shots :D

[@robertkaynes505]

I don't get what you mean when u face the exact same sail and you prefer the other one. Is there some difference at the factory or the 2023 vs 2022 or other ?

[@Romain-zs2yq]

I want to start competitions but I can't gain weight. is the weight really important to perform ?

[@tomaruba]

Hi Nico, do you also test the same mast but put into the sail in Different ways? Does this make a difference?

[@paulnoah9716]

❤

[@gerdmueller3131]

Nice video!

[@thomasfolan2716]

Are you wearing a weight or impact vest ?

[@lardov1]

When light wind winging?

[@julianm1127]

I should start eating a lot more apparently 🤣

[@christianwrobel2901]

What was your speed with this setup & wind conditions?

[@Mariz650]

Nice

[@FrederikSchukken]

95.5? I still have 18.5 to go! Down 😂

[@SirKilmore001]

I am always so stressed about my rig flying off and you just leave it overnight! Does this mean NP sails are extra safe? 🤔

[@BoardLifeNico]

Haha, the spot is very wind protected…

[@samvd9358]

How light was the wind in this day?

[@BoardLifeNico]

7-12 knots I would say

[@leisepinkler]

Sah gut aus, als Ritter Nico

[@lievedriessen3162]

As most women I try to stay slim... I can plane earlier

[@tristan_krn]

95kg???? Well then, I have a lot of work to do 😂. To be honest tho I’m just trying to get to 65kg (I’m 60kg rn) but yeah.

[@sandeepgill27]
