Excellent video, thank you for making the effort! (The remark on shim setting for weed conditions was interesting. Shoutout to Enrico for helping you!)
Super nice with the overlay of Ben's voice and your filming Why shouldn't you tell about your health ? - come on it is 2024, I just think it makes you more trustworthy. Thanks for the nice videos !
Great video, could you talk about gear a bit specifically about boards because you said you have different foil boards and it would be nice to have comparisson like you did with fin boards. Keep up the good work🤙
I am following you now since many years. Beeing 58 y now, I have had a burn out 12y ago. I also had the feeling watching your chanel that you put yourself under a lot of pressure. This might be a reason for getting sick so often. But maybe I am completly misjuding it from so far away. I hope an any case that you get to the root of your health problems and that it will not be anything serious.
Great work, to get these videos ready over night and deliver on the same level on the next day. Props to Lars, and great start by Nico💪🏽 What are the headphones for on the water? Isn't it important to hear the conditions and the other riders?🤔
Great video - very authentic hearing about the struggles as well as the highs. Always amazing to get a view onboard during a race that you watch on TV. Congrats on the superb performance.
Great job guys! Love the music mix. I used to get Flu a lot in my early 20s after taking strong anti-biotics for a viral infection I picked up windsurfing in sewage💩 all good now. The doctor said to me that windsurfing is such a comprehensive workout that it leads to extreme exhaustion. I love that feeling
Dude I had the same last year... I was sick constantly. Never happened before. All tests perfect. This year, nothing. I don't get hit by anything again. I think a new wave of somethng just hit and it took some time to build up resistance to it. Hope you get the same experience!
Sorry to hear about your health. I know that between sailing and other training that all of you push very hard. From my own experience of living with leukaemia for 30 years while still doing a lot, it may be possible to cut back on gym work and other non skills based training a little, and still get good results with hypertrophy and strength. There aren't many other species of mammals that push so consistently hard. Recovery is so important! Good luck and thanks for all the great vids!
The assumption that being heavier would slow you down isn't necessarily true once you are up and planning (or foiling) as the extra weight allows you to hold and control a bigger sail, and therefore more power, and that benefit far outweighs the cost to planning speed due to excess weight.
@@andreaskatevaths9272 It's the same for fin. Lighter sailors might plane earlier, with a smaller sail, but once a heavier sailor, with a bigger sail, ( or just more in control) gets up on the plane, he/she will often be faster. The key is that both sailors are planning, a lighter sailors doesn't plane "more", both boards at full power will have almost the same drag, the difference is one will be getting powered by a bigger sail and so more driving force
Hey Nico! I was just wondering if u could dedicate a part of your video complaining how does this ranking and work? How are you getting your final positions in the end of the year. I’d be happy if you could complain that.
Moin. Ja wird schon, mit dem Comeback des Windsurfens, Wird ja immer wärmer durch den soooo genannten Menschen gemachten Klimawandel 🤣😜 ( Geldmaschine ) Grüße aus Kiel 😜 ( 👍ist raus ) 🖖🤙
Dear Nico, as I just heard you are getting sick very often, I got to advise you to check your gluten intolerance… I used to get sick very often, but then I was advised to stop eating gluten. It was a life vhanging experience for me… please go check on that, you need 40 days of to have a result…
Nico and Ben have made windsurf racing a great spectator sport again! The onboard footage, personal insights, and enthusiastic commentary are great!
Your flu is not forever, people think you're weak, but you're strong! Keep it up! We all get a bit older!
Really nice addition with the onboard cam and the mix with the pwa footage!
Amazing skills and exciting to watch- Thanks for sharing your passion.
Great coverage from onboard! Good mix with Ben/PWA coverage too.... really adds an element!
Excellent video, thank you for making the effort! (The remark on shim setting for weed conditions was interesting. Shoutout to Enrico for helping you!)
awesome edit. great TV style format, impressing
Thanks for the report. Great shots from the board.
I love the videos explaining the competition flow. Great job!
Super nice with the overlay of Ben's voice and your filming
Why shouldn't you tell about your health ? - come on it is 2024, I just think it makes you more trustworthy.
Thanks for the nice videos !
Great video, could you talk about gear a bit specifically about boards because you said you have different foil boards and it would be nice to have comparisson like you did with fin boards. Keep up the good work🤙
most guys use an 85 wide in the PWA since you can only register 1 board.
Amazing editing of this great footage!!!!!!!!!!! A master (editor) at work!!! THANX ❤

Awesome! And insane action especially from bruno and johan

What are the headphones for on the water? Isn't it important to hear the conditions and the other riders?🤔

Excellent footage!👍
6th well deserved !!! keep focus for 2nd day of racing!
what amazes me with the wing-foiling, is that it requires super-long harness lines, way longer than windsurfing I feel!
Nico, please, tell me what wireless headsets work best in the wind and sea for you. It's such a key saftey item these days.
Why safety?
You Look very Solid in difficult conditions. Great Job man.
Drück dir alle daumen für den rest des events🤙🏼👍🏼💪🏼 rocknroll 🤘🏼
Hi Nico, thanks for that. Super. I see you were wearing headphones during the races … what music are you listening to, or are you on the phone ?
business meetings.. most probably ;)
Headphones used to hear the watch beeping for race starts.
congrats, great work on and off the water

Attacke!
Great Video, excellent production value combining the PWA-Footage and your own POV! What an effort! Thanks!
great video nico
Hammer Rennen. Viel Glück weiterhin!
Hey Nico, gute Besserung und nimm das mit deiner Gesundheit ernst. Eure Videos sind echt gut und interessant!
Dude I had the same last year... I was sick constantly. Never happened before. All tests perfect. This year, nothing. I don't get hit by anything again. I think a new wave of somethng just hit and it took some time to build up resistance to it. Hope you get the same experience!
Nico, please never stop windsurfing! Awesome footage!
Get well soon 🎉💪
excellllllent, nothing more to say 🙂
Sogeil, Hut ab Jungs! Ich drücke die Daumen für die kommenden Rennen!

Do you have multiple wetsuits or are you able to get it dried overnight?
Forgot to explain what gear and settings for what wind..!!
Greetings to Sylt
Nico, what do you have in your ears when you're racing? Headphones? Earplugs? Why?
Great vids! Love the content.
Hey Nico . Could you please explain why slalom competitors have to gain more weight? Someone will thought that less weight goes faster . Thank you !
The assumption that being heavier would slow you down isn't necessarily true once you are up and planning (or foiling) as the extra weight allows you to hold and control a bigger sail, and therefore more power, and that benefit far outweighs the cost to planning speed due to excess weight.
Yes but what about fin ?

How are you getting your final positions in the end of the year.
I’d be happy if you could complain that.
Moin Nico 🤙🏻
BRAVO
Mann, bist Du fleißig - nach so einem Tag fällt man normalerweise nur noch tot ins Bett. Mit einer 250gr Tafel Schokolade auf dem Bauch. 😑
Nico ich drücke Dir die Daumen, Du bist das Gesicht des deutschen Windsurfens.
Wir alle glauben an Dich und an das Comback des Windsurfens.😊🤙😊
Moin. Ja wird schon, mit dem Comeback des Windsurfens,
Wird ja immer wärmer durch den soooo genannten Menschen gemachten Klimawandel 🤣😜

Grüße aus Kiel 😜 ( 👍ist raus ) 🖖🤙
Why do windsurfers not have coaches?
they should have bloody salom format like that for America's cup ... upwind downwind ....ZZzzzz
at 13th sec FRA14 lost his gopro!!
Did you watch the video?
@@Nico_GER7 first third, I'll still do it

Flu, maybe. Sailing in dirty water can't help
