INSANE rabbit start @onehourclassic 2019 the wrong way

[@MrFurriephillips]

These are absolutely the best videos on KZbin - they remind me of the sheer speed and adrenaline that you can achieve, when you get into the groove and “close the gap” (bring the bottom of the sail, downtown the deck of the board).

[@AndyLaufer]

thanks mate

[@windfilms9114]

perfektes timing beim Start. Nur die falsche Richtung gewählt😄

One day I'll be half the windsurfer Andy Laufer is

Awesome you made the race to an contact sport ;) yeah it was dangerous but that's some serious action. Love the clip when you push the guy with the Starboard during your Jibe 😂😉

yes its a friend of mine :)

So cool. 1:56 was hilarious. What that guy on the boat was shouting to you? Please don't cut out moments when you recover your rig after falling. Subscribed.

thanks mate!

Awesome performance🤙😀

[@andreoost3128]

awesome speed at the lake! But youre jibs, looks like mine when i'm fit hahahaha

[@AndyLaufer]

yes got too tired after 40 min. of full throttle...then its even much harder to jibe.

[@allagreta9990]

Cray fast 🎉 congrats 🍾

[@GijsAlb]

How is it that you are going (much) faster than most other guys? Is it: -beceause you can handle a bigger sail? - Beceause your equipement (combination) is better? - Your trimming is better? -Your windsurfing technique is better? Or all of above?;-) I'm curious!

[@dengordo]

Maybe because he was a speed world champion in 2018?

[@GijsAlb]

@@dengordo Hi DenMayDay, thanks for your usefull answer! Is that; - beceause he can handle a bigger sail? - Beceause his equipement (combination) is better? - His trimming is better? -His windsurfing technique is better?

[@AndyLaufer]

Hi @@GijsAlb ,my weight is about 100kgs wich is a big advantage on the course. Hard to accelerate after jibing but I can sail faster than most of the guys. 2nd is the equipment and the trim. 3rd I started windsurfing in 1981, so I got some skills already :) and 4th its super fun - if you have fun - you go fast!

[@adlodewijkx7894]

@@AndyLaufer hi Andy. What equipment do you use, Jp pro? And what size sail. Do you rent the board? Next month I am in Torbole, would like to know the shop if rented. Great video. I started in 1976, still love it. Cheers. Ad

[@anthonysquires2118]

Andy, how do you go so much faster than everyone else?

[@AndyLaufer]

windsurfing since 1981. This helps a lot :) And of coure the best equipment / fins.

[@MrFurriephillips]

@@AndyLaufer my windsurfing “career” was 1983-1990 between the ages of 11 & 18, and I only really sailed in wind significantly > force 4, on the Beaufort scale (preferably in a gale). These videos are bringing back memories of the very best kind, thank you, from a new subscriber!

[@AndyLaufer]

@@MrFurriephillips thanks mate!!

[@rolandehmig]

da wird man unruhig - echt!! die Frage der durchgeglittenen Halsen ??? ev. effektiver , als eng um die Boje und Fahrt aufnehmen müssen ( war das erste was mir durch den Kopf ging) aber super schnell bist Du - alle Achtung !! Gruss aus der Heimat.....Roland

[@AndyLaufer]

Danke schön Roland...ja die Halsen. Bin nicht allzu fit, nach ca. 40 Minuten verließ mich die Kraft. War froh, dass ich nicht jedes Mal vom Brett gefallen bin.

[@voilemontagne]

As a sailor not into windsurfing yet, i don't understand the point to go in the "wrong way". Didn't seem to make him win any places. Can anyone explain? (Sorry for my bad english)

[@AndyLaufer]

I was too late on the start, so I had to go back, turn around and start from scratch :)

[@voilemontagne]

@@AndyLaufer thanks!

Some rate of speed you go. It’s epic

[@Team33Team33]

Dangerous sailing !!! :-) Way to go ..... NO. But very gutsy all the same. They should have let you know before though with a black flag and your number. I'm always amazed at how large people jibe and how, if you get it right, you can pass at the jibes. Great video.

[@RanZZbert]

9.0 and he waterstarts it like its nothing Whaaaaaaaaat?!

0:07 WTF is that black speedboat playing at?

[@MrGentlebutfirm]

Wow! That is really a selfish move. No one are expecting a madman coming at them at the start. Serious injuries could have been the result. So glad you were disqualified. And good you are cool with that..

[@AndyLaufer]

got disqualified due to the 1 min. rule, nothing to do with the start

[@MrGentlebutfirm]

Andy, you write in the video description the following: "Finished on 8th position but got disqualified due to dangerous sailing which is obvious and ok for me." So which explanation is the correct one?

[@AndyLaufer]

the 1 min. rule... I tought on the beginning, that it was due to dangerous sailing... anyway, disqualified and happy with it. thats the rule. cheers

[@MrGentlebutfirm]

Thanks, for the clarification. Cheers

[@Vald1603]

​@@AndyLaufer В России такой старт называют "Барским". Если столкновения не произошло и никто не подал протест из за создания реальной помехи, вполне разрешен правилами, но считается грязным приемом.
