[@JuelZ925]

Ben is so humble! It really lift me up! Great work!

[@TKM11370]

Watching this again today. RIP Farrel

[@kitbrogan]

Great job fella. Loving the commentary of the whole event too. You really brought it to the rest of us wave sailors.....tempting....

[@thextremeking]

Fantastic series! I really appreciate the tuning tips and congrats on your achievement!!!

[@simongodfrey3765]

Congratulations Ben! Brilliant achievement joining the 50 knot club - I honestly didn't see that coming - well done! Also the video series is excellent, it's been great following your progress since West Kirby - that must seem a long time ago now! You should be very proud of what you've achieved. I'd love to know a bit more about the 50 knot run. How did it feel? Were you on the edge? How did you adapt to the part of the course where the lull hits and then peaks at the end? How scary is the lay-down at the end? Did you make it back in time for your flight? Cheers mate! p.s. slightly less swearing would be great, you're an articulate guy, you don't need it ;)

Wo what was the final run 500m speed?

[@tadej255]

congrats man..that's seriously quick!

[@fedup3449]

Ben I've just realised i know you. I just started watching some of your vids but didn't make the connection till i saw your T Shirt saying your name. Did you used to go surfing up at Bala when you were a wee lad. I knew your Mom & Dad who were always up there with you. You look just like your Dad. I was always up the with Andy Homer and the likes back in the eighties. He sailed a Laser and i had a couple of sinkers. You probably don't remember me as you were only about 9 or 10. Have fun, mate.

[@WindsurfingTV]

haha.. yep that was me 😁 Been a while since i've sailed at Bala... but had some great days sailing there! I'm impressed you remembered haha

[@leisepinkler]

Mission accomplished! Fastest midget of the world! I‘m loving it!

[@altumano]

Congrats! Great emotions in this video!

[@michaelmarzolf6539]

OK, just about wet my pants laughing ... the watermelon helmet!!! Now that's custom!

[@deroux]

congratulations and thanks for the great coverage!

[@suhan8382]

Give this guy a medal 🤙

[@jonjohnson9678]

Brilliant - speedsailing a couple of times and bingo - 50 knots!

[@notPANIC]

That watermelon helmet🤣🤣

[@christiandeplante6639]

Honestly impressed. Great stuff, yet the helmet from the beginning should have been used all the time. Risk of head injury at 50 knots, not good. These videos are watched by many windsurfers. It is a good occasion to set the example for being safe as well!

[@SamDoeckeAussiebonsaibloke]

Wow Awesomeness love it

[@windsurfer]

This is so filth Ben.... well done mate... 50 knots must feel awesome on the speed board!

[@russelllutwyche5736]

[@marcelvandoorn8374]

[@gary6162]

Great to see finally a sport suited to overweight middle aged men.

[@mr.question2391]

What was the wind speed ? !!!

[@gazramang8645]

that was fucking brilliant!

[@paulosilva-dm1qb]

That´s for pro only. Very very dangerous indeed... BTW they thank u when u hit the top speed not because they liked it.it´s only because u set the new challenge...lol what would be the fun if the limit already existed.?

[@surfer30071972]
