The HARDEST CONDITIONS I ever Windsurfed | SLALOM X 3/5

[@RooSpeedsailor]

That's what windsurfing is all about. Full power, balls to the wall, edge of disaster racing. When the best windsurfers are pushed to their limits Slalom X is the result. You guys are windsurfing heroes, thanks for keeping the sport alive. Go fast, jump high and take no prisoners...respect.

[@briancrowe8383]

I used to think that PWA racing was boring to watch; NOT this year!! Slalom X is fantastic to watch, especially with Ben’s excellent play-by-play and Nico’s racer commentary. So exciting!

[@Luigi-xy6gs]

What a show,slalom x hard core windsurfing, real windsurfing battle🚀🤙😎

[@thomasbohn5034]

I thought it couldn’t get any better than Pozo. I was wrong. This event was epic in all aspects, conditions, action, coverage! Great to see all the competitors so pumped and genuinely excited about windsurfing. The fin is back!

[@lindairving4396]

No foils! Great Wind! What a windsurfing competition 🏄🏾‍♂️🏄🏾‍♂️🏄🏾‍♂️

[@paulsp2k]

Great Racing, and awesome to see Taty up near the top of the rankings, that guy's smile is infectious. GL for the next day's sailing Nico

[@palmwell]

Finally a video that truly reflects how physical this sport really is. Great video Nico as always! ❤

[@Beyourbestversion84]

Hy Nico I saw all your video and I really appreciate your work and your love for windsurf. I start to windsurfing after watching your videos and I never stop to do those beautiful things with my board ❤

[@gonzagueFFZ145]

What a pleasure it is to watch these videos during lunch break and think about something else!

[@masterbroadcaster]

"foil is a kindergarten" #finforthewin! keep up the good content!

[@nikostheodorou023]

Nice race, extreme conditions and good result for you Nico.

[@pierre-antoinequeloz1980]

You guys are incredible 💪 It's much much better to watch you on the fins and foils in separated races now. Thanks Nico and Lars for the super nice videos 👍🔥

[@zXfilgamer]

Nice video, thanks to Lars for the work.

[@zameerpactyan]

enjoy watching these updates very refreshing! I think there should be more of these events

[@Filip-cb6zf]

Slalom X is an essence of windsurfing! This is real stuff!

[@christopherbroers167]

Great watch - well done and hoping they show the IQFoil in the olympics -personally I my favorites to watch are on the edge low wind where you have to make speed and high wind we're you have to know your limits

[@Lorenzo075]

amazing race you all windsurfing heroes

[@lomicwind]

A real pleasure to watch all those videos in las Canarias, great conditions, dreamy surroundings, epic footage and video editing.

[@janvandenbosch8100]

I really appreciate how you get the ‘everybody knows and respects everyone else’-feeling across.

[@postiebren]

The new gladiators! Hard core!

[@schobihh2703]

foil is for boys. Fin for men. Gr8 action. I really enjoy watching it.

[@SimoneBuralliMaj7]

I don't think you got the point, to me: foil is expensive, tricky, dangerous, boring to watch and less and less popular among amateurs. On the other hand, it potentially has a huge evolution that fin has no more.

[@sams7619]

Insane! Good job guys

[@fonsvandenhove]

This is so incredibly exciting! Great racing, great music choice, great edit. Thanks Lars!

[@welleueberwelle934]

YOU DID IT! Windsurfing is back and better than ever for the public! (It was always great for us privateers, but now it's time for the masses to enjoy it too! =D)

[@heimslach]

nice one, feeling your pain on the random spin out. overpowering conditions and your weight similar to mine its hard for the gear to stand up to that 100%. well done on keeping it going to complete that course

[@elmanuel472]

Very fun to watch and I love all the added data on the screen! Is it possible to add current wind speed? Getting close to Sail GP right there 👍🏻

[@gianmarcoboretto1730]

Excellent videos and races, Nico! Congratulations!💪

[@MikeSYT2]

Looks great, impressing action! Combination of strong guys, speed and exciting comments.

[@JuliusNiethammer]

Sooo great to see you full power racing in this wild, beautifull conditions 💪🏽🔥 Fuerteventura at its best 😍

[@axelzenone]

Those videos are gold !! Keep it up guys

[@Marty-q7m]

That's the real deal, fantastic action!❤

[@hossor123]

I watched all the livestreams, amazing Stuff! Why no Beach starts or beachfinish?? i certainly better for that in Fuerte than in Pozo!! I still want the lycra!

[@steffenernst3234]

Great report of this race. Very impressed how tight they all race

[@JimHill10]

What a wonderful event to watch. Thanks Nico for this!

[@istvansternocky]

[@shmish]

Such small margins for both speed and avoiding messing up. Very exciting!

[@moritznimax6763]

Slalom X just rules!! So cool!

[@murphyflynn6471]

such crazy action! I am on the edge of my seat the whole time

[@christophhinze2545]

Great job man, good luck for the rest of the event. :)

Exciting racing again, Adrenaline levels through the roof.. Keep strong Nico 💪🏼

[@TRUMP2four]

Awesome coverage by the PWA president, rider and all around kick ass dude. Cheers from Arizona USA. 🤙🏻🌊🏄🏻🏝️

[@martinwilliamson4263]

Just when you thought it couldn’t get more exciting, it is. Slalom x is great

[@thorstenpusch1139]

Well done Nico. I am looking forward for the next day with your report.

[@thors1965]

Great show on Fuerte, i like it a lot!

[@Takeprofit_1M]

Absolute HERO ! wie krass, wie krass!!!

[@captainashcam]

Incredible. The drone footage really helps. Nico, are you wearing earplugs, or is that part of the helmet strap?

[@alfovebraseth]

I know it´s harder, but fin action is so much more exciting, well done Nico

[@olvanroye]

Thanks to you and Lars for all these great videos🤙🤙🤙

[@NikVumRhing]

A Dream of Windsurfing Action, thanks for Sharing your expirience with us 🤙

[@anastasiadedyukhina4548]

That is the answear to my question haha I am really happy to watch this competition ! It is very beautiful !!

[@jeroenhessel7535]

What a great action, you really pushen hard. Congrets whit 6 place.

[@davidbataille406]

Thanks for sharing, the footage and the explanations.... very interesting to follow 🤙🤙

[@danayers2129]

What a fun event. I'm jealous of how windy it is!

[@bagomoyo]

13:38 I thought it was 2X replay speed…😳 that’s really a tough race.

[@alfordmick]

Great stuff, especially Lars work on getting all the other sailors and comments 🤙🏻💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Moritz-o6c]

This Slalom x is incredible to watch, really impressed by all the guys competing against euch other🎉

[@theoutsider6191]

Dude, the wind at Sotavento is like almost nothing else 🙂 particularly with that epic long sandy beach and flat water 🙂

[@sailpowerwave]

nice job Nico!

[@LifeisaGamble-w1n]

insane conditions, great fights and action!!🔥

[@leisepinkler]

That is racing action we were waiting for

[@lars-gorangustafsson4650]

Insane racing. Good luck!

[@ordinaryswedishwindsurfer]

when the pros are exhausted, its gnarly 😁😁

[@janmuyllaert8565]

I could never get the speed jibes , never used the harness either , I let the wind do the talking and didn't fight it ! those guys are at another level altogether.

[@markoconnor680]

Those Slalom racers did have a close race but the Slalom actions weren't as repeated as I thought they would have been in such a special event.

[@thomaszell2441]

Just awesome 🔥🔥🤙🏻

[@BruceSpedding]

Exciting stuff, I had to remind myself I was watching a recording and not live - roll on tomorrow!

[@berniste3855]

Action pur, macht richtig Laune das anzuschauen und die Jungs hatten glaube ich auch Spaß trotz der Anstrengenden Runs❤👍🚀

[@Vini.OliveTree]

I am loving the slalom X

[@tadrun9848]

Great respect to ride at that level in such a tough conditions💪👍

[@adir_bauchek]

How much time each round takes ?

[@dennis4377]

Not gonna lie, seeing you so tired after the event definitely makes you seem more human 😂

[@mariong4912]

wow...what a program on the fin..😅🌪🌪

[@frankstrobel4350]

I wonder if there will be sails more suited/designed specifically for this kind of racing ? 🤔

[@mattdowse9144]

Awesome Racing 😊

[@TeodoroCasadei]

Grande Nico!

[@skorpneedle]

Awesome 👏

[@mennot6308]

For next year slalom X, put an elastic rope between 2 buoys at a height of 2m or less. So you have to do a laydown gybe to go underneath it. 🤙

[@tadejpeckaj1151]

Next time when Nico and Andrea are talking.. get all 3 on the picture the whole time😂

[@lomicwind]

yep a bit annoying those camera movements

[@bertbosman1955]

R.E.S.P.E.C.T.!!

[@Krollis_Food]

Slalom on fuerte is on Fire

[@ivogarza9339]

Can you give wind speed every couple of races? It would help windsurfers better empathize with you guys. You say 50 knots we can feel the guy with the hatchet chopping on our biceps.

[@tonezzzzzzzz]

Very exciting to watch! Wish I could be half that strong, it would be more fun. 😂

[@stefanrehpenning73]

Great!

[@ChryptoAddict]

Great race but at 5:52 what was that about?

[@timcairns7672]

Hope our insatiable desire for endless racing does not get anyone hurt when foil resumes tomorrow.

[@haukee.4000]

Nice action❤
