Testing my NEW iSONICS in GRAN CANARIA with Björn | vlog²₂₀₂₂

[@luciennieman4490]

Again a nice video. I have fun looking at your video’s now I am fighting cancer and have not be able to surf for a year now. But I will beat this F decease💪🤙🏻 and hope to be on the water asap

[@Nico_GER7]

YOU CAN DO IT, Lucien!!! It's worth fighting for. Would be great to meet you.

[@luciennieman4490]

@@Nico_GER7 it would be nice to meet you. Steendam is to far away for me. I live at the south of the netherlands. But I will folow you on youtube and use your tips en tricks when I’m back on the water, because that will happen.

[@luciennieman4490]

By the way, the 63 looks amazing👌

[@robhruska7611]

Hang in there brother, i am fighting MS and couldn’t windsurf all last summer. Windsurfing kept me motivated and i was able to get out for a couple short sessions in the fall. I am hoping i can get back on the water in a few weeks. Windsurfing is a powerful motivator and having a goal to strive towards is powerful in healing our bodies! Good luck I know you will do it!!

Lars did great! Felt like I was with you guys the whole time.

Awesome to see a seasoned pro still get so stoked about a great session! Excited just like a beginner getting in the straps and planning for the first time! Thx

More downhall with the drone! Best Moment!!! ;)

Good video. I thought the drone footage was really good, good angles.

it was a pleasure 2 watch this video! great Job Nico and great Job Lars !!

[@LarsWcmn]

Thanks man🤙🏻

[@yagolf]

Awesome video! I also like that you showed some of the worst moments of the first day in Pozo so people get a good feel of the good and the bad times. Had I known you were going to Arinaga the day after, I'd have come too! Great to see you there anyway

[@jorkolor]

The drone in the end for downhauling killed me 🤣🤣

[@rodriguezstohrer5492]

nice and stunning edit.. good job Lars.... well done.... RIP DJI! Well done Nico

[@kev-the-windsurfer.]

This is excellent video, very nicely put together. The right amount of sailing content vs road trip, background info and joking around. Drone footage is always spectactular but also the POV view of your gybes was great, I also like the slow-mo gybes. Always great to see Bjorn, what a legend!! Very enjoyable to watch.

[@ghughes20]

Great Video Nico. Cool to see your chat with BD.

[@Nico_GER7]

haha! See you in Stonedam?

[@vladislavkornushenko]

Nice))) I visited this spot too.

[@djpollo2474]

I was thinking about buying a jetski or a boat ( as cheap as possible) to have fun and explore places on my island (puerto rico) and I had a windsurf board, mast and sail but had to sell it all because my trucks ac went out and had to get it fixed and it went out again... But here I am now thinking I should go through with it again since having a cheap jetski is very un reliable and a boat is way to expensive, so I might windsurf and explore puerto rico!

[@Nico_GER7]

Yeahh!! Windsurf all the way 👏👏

[@henrikcarlsen1881]

[@filipposiatrou4219]

I see you moved the footstraps to the front a bit on the 63. Is that because of the conditions? Would you place them further back in a race

Great videp, keep on!! I really enjoyed the footage in Pozo! Maybe some fin recommandations for the new isonics would be interesting! And I would be very interested in your first experiences with and a comparison of speed watches:-)

[@Nico_GER7]

Gotta get myself a speed watch! I used Björns in Gram Canaria. For fins I still need to do some testing but it’ll probably end up 32cm for 63 and 37cm for 73 (both Chopper). Although 38cm could work as well.

[@reginaloos6367]

@@Nico_GER7 Thanks for the fin recommendations! Regarding speed watch I still use a Locosys GW-60, which works great but the accu is getting weaker and weaker so I'm looking for a proper replacement which should also be easier to use.

Tolles Video. Das iSonic scheint ja wirklich ein tolles Board zu sein. Aber mal eine andere Frage Nico: Welche Actioncam Halterung benutzt du auf deinem letzten Instagram Video? Man kann komplett dich und dein Brett von vorne sehen. Darf man fragen welche Halterung das ist? Danke dir Nico.

[@Nico_GER7]

Eine einfache Klemme für den Gabelbaum mit einem Verlängerungsarm.

[@sharewavestv]

Liebe Surffreunde, das Warten hat sich gelohnt: Nico hat ein neues Video hochgeladen! Und was für eins?!

[@christopht.5649]

Hey great Video, and hey a water start video is coming as wished in an earlier comment in an other video! THANK YOU! One question: the straps on the boom were pretty wide in one footage (two hands or so). Why is that?

[@Nico_GER7]

Coming after the next video! I’m explaining in the video why it’s a bit wider in the tail.

[@M.Bo.]

I think Christoph meant the harness lines being very far apart on the boom. Please correct me if I am wrong, but I think this is Björns preferred setup to have them a bit wider apart than usually recommended nowadays.

[@christopht.5649]

@@M.Bo. Yeah meant the harness lines not the foot straps 👍

[@yagolf]

@@M.Bo. Yeah, when you do speed sailing you tend to have them a bit further apart (or a lot, depending on preference) to increase the stability of the sail.

[@danshillabeer9523]

Praise in public, criticise in private. Not a bad management style, Nico. Beats saying "let's see who to blame" on the vid. Made me uncomfortable. I can understand your desire to succeed, but you hired the guy, so if he fails it's because you have too. How about "let's see what went wrong"?

[@Nico_GER7]

One day packed into 5min. A bit hard to judge from that, don’t you think? We both already knew who’s fault it was, because we were able to speak before we came to the car and switched the camera on. So instead of saying it’s your fault I made a joke about it. I’m fine with not trying to squeeze employee Management-Seminar-Knowledge into every sentence.

[@adbouwens1111]

..and Duckerbeck has to mansion that he was always fast. a little more humor and modesty would suit him.
