You mentioned the physical exhausting part for you. Any suggestions on what to do to be more fit for this race? Arm and leg exercises for example. Nice you did more of the DEFI wind experience
Oh man! That crowd of downed sailors at the jibe mark was crazy! I can't imagine having to deal with something like that. It looks like you picked your way through that very nicely and came out smelling like a rose! Congrats on such a high finish!
Im new to all of this so i actually need explanation. How do this races actually work? cause seeing how the rabit start makes that everybody starts at different times it can be like a classical race. Do they do it by time or how exactly does it work ?
No, because the boat goes from downwind to upwind. So yes the ones upwind can start later but can take a faster course. So this evens out the advantage. However starting downwind, where the boat starts first still has a bit of an advantage on the foil. For a classical start it’s just too many people.
Hi ! congrats for this race ! Could I ask what is this unconvential sunglasse shape please at 7:31 timestamp ? I really really want to buy this model ! thanks !
Good job nico! it was a pity that there was no wind on the fourth day. Because at that time I also wanted another chance to refresh a better result😂 All in all a great four days🎉
Great race - well done. Foiling definitely looks painful (even though fast in most conditions) because the weight distribution has to be so "spot on" to have maximum speed. Hope the back is better. You'll be developing new muscles you didn't even know existed LOL.
Du hast mein volles Respekt Nico. Bei so einem riesen race mit mehr als 1000 Windsurfern, den 21 Platz zu schaffen, this is insane 🏆🏆🏆🏅🏅🏅 und da kannst du auf jeden Fall stolz auf dich sein. Nächstes mal top 10 oder? Alles gute. Ilona
Danke auch für dieses Video. Behält man bei so vielen Teilnehmern eigentlich den Überblick und weiß, ob der vor einem jemand ist, den man schon überrundet hat oder ein direkter Konkurrent? Anderes Thema: fände es spannend, deine Pulswerte in einem Rennverlauf zu sehen.
Great job and dang those conditions look awesome 🤙🏻🤙🏻🌊 btw are you still married? I haven't seen your wife or doggy in any vids lately. You are my modern day Robby Naish. Lol yes I've been windsurfing a long time. 😂
Good race! Maybe for your size and strength at these wind speeds 22-28 knots you needed even the 85 board with the 5.7 or maybe the 81 and 6.7? Were the other top 10 foil riders on similar gear? Reply
Geile Aufnahmen👍Irgendwann muss ich da auch mal teilnehmenden....
The quality of this miniseries, amazing!
This video is pure cineastic joy!
I love Defi videos! This one as well. Was suprised by your remark about seaweed. Didn't expect that.

Congratulations. And thanks for a great video.
Are you coming to race in North Carolina this year?
Congrats to an amazing result!
Well done Nico!
One day i will be there, defiwind is a dream

By the way, what was your time on that last race?
Incredibly good performance Nico.
Nice recap by the way, because smiling and having fun is always important with whatever you do.
Nice video and thanks for the full race POV on the second channel !
Great video again ! Looking for the 360 video of the full race ?

Really enjoyed this video again Nico!❤️
5:29 holy shit, that Phantom dude going twice as fast as everybody else! Nico Goyard probably, who else haha :p
Whoever that was was for sure fast, but it’s also deceiving. He had much better start and came with speed while others had to accelerate.
Is he just incredibly talented or has phantom just the best foilgear? Considering that from the 4 foilers in the top 10, 3 of them sail with Phantom.

Well done Nico,... TOP20!!. I think races on the fin are more spectacular. But thats the way it goes now a day's.
I hope I will be there ones.
Quality on top as always💥
This is awesome man! What a cool race, didn't even heard of it, but I am defenitely looking this up!
Awesome video!😊

The quality of the videos just get better 👍
Sehr geil ich will da auch mal mitsurfen
Great job Team Prien! Looking forward to being there next year with my new race boardv🙂

What an event. Some great editing there on the video and you got to interview Philippe Bru, gotta make up for not making top 20
What was the time of your Defi-races and the average speed?
Congrats on your result, this is a performance
So close! Space for improvement next year. Geile Nummer
Great race, wish I was there ;)
Where is the saturday night footage? haha
Looking forward welcoming new guys to the defi wind experience in 2024🙌
I will send you the video in private 😂
Nico, new helmet?

Sail size was good. They were ok even smaller sails. Yeah, maybe the board could have even been 85.
@@Nico_GER7 thanks for the reply Nico!
Awesome 👌
Google form submitted. See you in Gruissan '24 🎉 💪😉

Nice Vid. But I really hope that there is still a future for fin racing.
Me too :)
