[@speedquestwindsurfing]

This is unreal. One of the best windsurfing videos ever made.

[@danroe2777]

Thank you windsurfing for still being the most radical sport on Earth

[@MrJoecool9999]

I was there that day - I live a few miles away and was taking my elderly mother out for a run in the car when we came across it - we were both amazed at the surfers and also the helicopter pilot who was able to control it in that weather - it was spectacular....!

8 dislike from kiters 🤣🤣

[@krma1970]

Haha, I think I saw a kite in the background at 5'37 no? (° ) ( °)

[@windguru2091]

As a windsurfer myself, these boys are my heros, total respect for them!!!

[@julessubrenat553]

Honestly, it was the best storm chase ever and for sure the biggest windsurfing video ever.

[@redbull]

🤙

[@aurelianjohn-herpin1314]

Must be an incredible feeling to control so much force, respect! Red Bull, any new windsurf video upcoming?

[@JKenny44]

I wish they showed some longer clips instead of just 1 second before they go airborne and then cut to another clip immediately when they land.

[@test5093]

That's because windsurfers never land that kind of jump. They just drop from the sky trying not to break their gear or themselves.

[@George.Andrews.]

It would show it for what it is and that wouldn't do

[@rafelgrau]

I guess they broke some masts and sails

[@paul8731]

Agreed. I actually think this vid doesn't make windsurfing look great. Just mad men getting blown off the water.

[@XandersGame42]

I'll just hold on to my beer on this one.

Red Bull does give some windsurfers wings.

[@jcizzel10]

YES - hats off to all you boys. Legends. And to all the guys behind the scenes.

[@redbull]

Hats off to them all! 🙌

[@KPNJ3470]

id love to see what happens post wipe-out. i mean how do you even retrieve the gear let alone waterstart. the cold water alone is enough to make you scared and really tired.

[@userTJ39780]

You swim like your life depends on it. For conditions like this, there is often a jet ski that can help!

[@userTJ39780]

Windsurfing is amazing. I have been sailing every season from 1988 to 2023. Granted, I don't have waves like these, but it's still amazing!

[@userTJ39780]

Used a 3.0 to sail Hurricane Isabella.

[@gtflyer]

These guys are flat out Bad A$$. Much Respect.

[@redbull]

Absolutely! 💪

[@ezaccog3863]

4:50 - That’s a wipeout

[@lazslostpierre9951]

Watched it live from the pub car park above the harbour. World's best taming chaos.

[@Ash-cy7yw]

4:51 says it all. Mad respect to all involved with the making of this.

[@cutsordesigns]

👍 for the chopper pilot.

[@wakeup9094]

it was my sek home ,venezuela , i know ricardo and his mother .. he was going from freestyle to wave riding ..and now , 20 - 30 year later ,i see him ... on this video .wow .. nice.. amazing

[@tonyperez5360]

Incredible men

[@frenchsalsa]

Awesome summary. Thanks for getting some footage in these conditions and sharing videos as the event took place. Great work! Windsurfing is such an amazing and unique sport, fulfilling ourselves to the extreme! It deserves every bit of support it can get.

[@redbull]

Agree! 👊

[@martinschulz1524]

Sick, I watched the RB Storm chase work on Norderney a few years ago (heli and jetski) , awesome spirit and courage, that´s the stuff mankind is made of. Thanks a lot for this inspiring vid. I´m a Kitesurfer but isn ´t it all about the same?...Keep making this kind of movies, guys I love it.

[@poehaaa4642]

Respect! (And thanks to Red Bull for this event. Can you do a slalom or speed competition next storm?)

[@redbull]

We hear you! Stay tuned. 😉

[@jackcarey4902]

[@awed_]

Thanks for upload windusrfing content👍🏼

[@brycecohoon]

one of the gnarliest things I've ever seen.

[@RobbieKiama]

That moment when the guy lets go of his sail and you see the sail with the board just fly offff into horizon ... You realize it was beyond what you usually call storm

[@pascalc7294]

A chaque fois que je regarde ce film je me dis...DANTESQUE !!!! Au dessus de tout ce qu'on peut voir en windsurf...Je mets cette vidéo au sommet de la pyramide windsurf ;-) Bravo et Respect aux Riders

[@ladenjacobsen283]

So they fly up to crash in the water. Or land it. I don’t understand?

[@bezirkgaming5722]

That place is called mara rority I was there it is in ireland

[@TheGrumpyStone]

Insane video & respect to riders to go out in this condition. I have a question tho: why none of the big air jumps was landed successfully? Is it too dangerous in storm wind? I believe that is not because of riders’ level obviously :) P.s. I am not a windsurfer

[@qbax242]

Songs?

[@auiqx7997]

Ireland for ya
