WHAT A DAY!! iQ Foil Finals Silvaplana

Crazy conditions meet super intense medal races! Super fun to capture this footage from the 4th day of the iQ Foil U21 World Cup at Silvaplana, Switzerland. Awesome live-stream produced by AALVAA MEDIA at Engadinwind. I had no idea if it will work but being used to fly in very wet and rough surroundings, I made the call to go for it. I captured whatever was going to happen. Don't miss out on "Awesome racing & epic live footage!! IQ Foil World Cup Silvaplana", watch now!

I think we all want more videos like this🔥🤘🏽

[@Fred-yv5vi]

Bravo for the fight for victory between the french and the british competitor! Much fun!😊

[@jamesmckenzie4572]

Great shooting, lots of fun to watch. Nice looking in the rain too.

[@samking4179]

Great footage and great music at the end! I used to windsurf as much as I could when I was a teenager in the 1980's and through my 30's. This foiling stuff is so surreal! Would love to try it some day!

[@Phil-ry2ux]

Your filming made the event so much better, great job. Boris (GBR319) will be impressed with you getting his 2 foiling tacks up close :)

[@johannes_hertel]

Awesome to hear! Thank you! I was seriously amazed by his tacks😅 I think I appreciate great tacks - especially foiling - more than jibes. Although I love nice jibes, too!

[@marinatinseattle]

This bringing so much life to the sport. How do we campaign the olympic committee for you to shoot the whole thing?

[@johannes_hertel]

That means a lot, thank you! Hehe I don‘t know how to do that😅

[@lennartneubauer1807]

It’s so sick to have both perspectives🔥

[@johannes_hertel]

💪🏻💪🏻😎

[@sorenfischer3078]

Macher!

[@vierfuffzig1471]

those proximity shots circling round the sailors at boom height - just freakin awesome🤙🏼 majorly ballsy flying, even more so looking at the conditions. wouldn‘t have thought it possible to even get sth close to a flyable image in that rain… thanks for sharing!

[@johannes_hertel]

Thanks man!! As always, I really appreciate your feedback and support💪🏻🤝😎

[@kremat]

Great job! Love your work! ....really great decision making! Maybe we meet on a job in the future?! I'm gonna be in sylt for the worldcup end of September. Where are you based? I sometimes need a skilled Pilot Like you! (I'm also a professional pilot)

[@johannes_hertel]

Thanks man! That‘s great, would be awesome to fly together👌🏻 I‘ll be in Sylt, too! Shoot me a DM on Instagram so we can link up💪🏻 I‘m based in Portugal

[@pustulaingrassifflet4350]

Great filming as always! Im wondering how can you be sure nobody or nothing is on your way, when you fly sideway or backward !?

[@johannes_hertel]

Thank you! Before going close I usually start further away so I see anything that might be even remotely close to where I will fly. I never gamble when I going in a position that lacks view to the front but still, it’s never really that comfortable to go “blind”😅

[@galensk]

Any follow up on how the drone performer after drying up ? No side effects afterwards ? Or waterdamage ? Great flying by the way 🤙

[@johannes_hertel]

Good question! I took it for a 5 min spin a couple of days ago and everything seemed fine. I did let the batteries dry properly though (for about a week). I‘ll give an update in case anything turns out to be malfunctioning
