Congrats on your amazing 8th place! Something to be proud of. How heartbreaking it is to go out like Johan, though. Whether or not he wouldn't have won the title with regular production sails is pure speculation. A modified sail alone doesn't put you in first place after all. However, as hard as the disqualification is, it was the right call I think. Congrats also to Matteo. It's a well deserved world title. His performance this season was stellar.
Nico you and Lars did an amazing job for the windsurfing community this year. Congrats because of that and because of your superior performance on the water!
Man I was heartbroken to hear Johan got a DSQ. Seems absolutely ridiculous it gets discovered on the last day. I am very curious to hear what "modification" had been done. Maybe you can enlighten us? I already see comments on the prize givings with "It should've been Johan" which also sucks for Iachino who absolutely also deserves the title with that racing. Gear should get tested when you show up for an event not during or after. I am very confident Johan did not cheat on purpose.
And let us not forget. The dildo of consequence rarely comes lubed - Rytis
Congratulations!
I finally got to see Nico windsurfing!!
It was so cool!!!
Please be sure to come to Japan again!!!!!
Thank you so much for coming over to Japan and leaving great footage here!
Congratulations on your 8th place overall 2023 Slalom ranking!
Great result being 8th in the World. Over the year, we have seen glimpses of the performance you can achieve if you have all your ducks in a row. If you can string together more of the top notch results, there is no reason you shouldn't be able to get a podium at the end of 2024. You and your kit certainly have the potential!!
Congrats on achieving your goals. It was a pleasure to follow your progress this season. Big shout out to Lars. Your follow up brought the tour to life! The Japanese are beautiful people. My brother left to teach there 20 years ago and hasn’t come back😊. All the best for next year. Go team Germany🙌 You and Michele are class acts.
Amazing job from both you and Lars. Really enjoyed watching the ups and downs of this year’s PWA races. Can’t wait for next year’s.
Congratulation to your 8th place. You and Lars did an amazing job this year. Your daily updates and insights in the PWA circus is very interesting.
Best wishes for the next season
Herzlichen Glückwunsch und vielen Dank für das interessante Video
Congrats Nico and thanks for the content, it's amazing!
How crazy are the Japanese fans?! I love it. Great to see their passion for you and the sport. And thank you for the explanation of the DSQ of Johan. It seems hard but fair for all other competitors. Good luck for the next year. And big congrats to your former teammates Blanca and Matteo. You are World Champions.
Congratulations Nico🎉🎉🎉. Thx for the great updates!!!

Congratulations on good result this year.Thanks for the videos really good IV learnt so much from them. Inspirational
Congrats Nico !! I am very happy for you. Also i am a big fan and have been following your channel since the beginning. Keep up the good work ... cheers!!
Congrats Nico 💪
Feel so bad for Johan. Sure it wasn’t intended from his side, Point7 for sure in this, that is just not good enough from their side 😡 Severne must be happy and wonder if they were the ones giving the protest for a sail not even used in the event
Congratulations on a fantastic season and results lookf onward to following you in the future.
A pleasure to watch this vid ,and thank for the explications of the disqualification.great job

Congratulations, Nico! Well done 🤩
Congratulations on your season, a few ups and downs along the way but targets met. Its always interesting hearing the background stories. Great job by Lars putting these together as well.
Thank you, superb coverage
Great coverage, thank you Nico and well done on your top 10 finish 🎉
Congratulations on a fantastic year, Nico! You should come down to Australia and sail with us during your break, which is our summer, because we have lots of awesome events coming up such as the Cervantes Challenge, which would provide you with heaps of great content. Hope we get to see you down here sometime soon. :-)
Thx for the video's Nico. Much appreciated. Looking forward to the next PWA slalom season!
Nico Great work great video great sailing keep us updated
Big shout out to Lars for his hard work and Fantastic coverage
Great reporting, well done on your results and on the production along the way Nico. Very surprised by the disqualification during the event, will be really unfortunate if his sponsor fucked up and supplied a non spec sail for the event. You hear about this sort of thing in F1 racing when constructors change things, but this is a first in board sports that I've heard about. It can provide an advantage for sure if specs are agreed for competitions (like using the current year production model sail), so it was the right decision in the end. In skiing when carving skis came in they made particular specs as a requirement once the governing bodies realised the impact of the turn radius on Slalom and Giant Slalom racing performance.
congratulations Nico great result , great coverage ..can't wait for the new season
Congratulations !
Great to meet you in Japan this year. Keep being a great inspiration and to windsurfers all over the world!
Congrats Nico for achieving your goal this year!!!🤙And also for being the evangelist of this amazing sport and lifestyle! Thanks a lot for all that you are doing!
Congrats! You guys did the best video coverage of the PWA!
Great result 🤙, thanks for the amazing content and congratz to both you and Lars ! #topeditor
See below the official statement from PWA regarding the DSQ.
Please everyone, be aware that none of you have all the correct information or the full picture.
It's crazy to see how quickly lies and false assumption spread. Regarding wether or not a sail was used, how much the measured difference really was, how much this would actually affect the performance and so on.
Of course, every party is releasing statements, but you can't believe everything you read on the internet.
No doubt that Johan sailed very well. I much respect his performance throughout the year and I'm sure he will be back strong next year.
Be assured that the PWA put a lot of work in, before making this call. They don't have the intention to harm anyone and they are certainly not influenced by riders or brands.
They are here to enforce rules. If they don't do that, we'll end up in the Wild West.
Wether the rules are good or not and should be different is a completely different topic and question. It shouldn't be confused with the fact that rules, which are currently in place, have to be enforced.

Official Statement Regarding Johan Søe’s Disqualification
Following equipment inspection of the top riders at the PWA Slalom Finals in Japan, Danish sailor Johan Soe, DEN-37, was unfortunately found to have been using a sail that had been modified from its original factory specification and that did not meet the registered specification for the sail, including allowances for all measurement tolerances.
As such, under the rules regarding production equipment on the PWA Slalom World Tour, the protest committee had no choice but to disqualify Johan from the final event in Japan.
Whilst we sympathise with Johan to have lost the World Title under such circumstances, the rules are clear and the facts surrounding the modification of the sails, and the discrepancy between the registered specifications of the sails, and the sails Johan was using, are not in question.
The PWA takes the rules surrounding production equipment seriously and respects the efforts of the vast majority of brands and riders to adhere to the rules and compete fairly. As such, to ignore the use of equipment that had been physically modified and that did not meet the registered specification would have been unacceptable with respect to the fundamental principles of the rules.
What happened that made the pwa suddenly start measuring sails on the final day?
Agree that the rules need to be adhered to. However, the PWA needs to have more transparent guidelines about when equipment gets checked. I feel for Johan. He probably had no idea. I would lay the blame on Point-7. He’s young and will bounce back for sure; hopefully with a new sail sponsor.
what a season, congratulation!!!
well done Nico - congrats
So proud of, let’s push it next season 🎉
Congratulations
Congratulations!! I really love the pwa series. As I couldn‘t watch the livestream, your videos were a perfect recap of every day! Gotta say that I kind of feel bad for Johan. Pretty sure he did not do it on purpose… so much work and it was „alles für den arsch“😂
Anyways keep up the good work🫶
Congratulation, Nico!
Very nice conclusion of the season. Looking forward to the first races in Pozo 2024. Could be interesting
Great work 🤙💪
Well done Nico for the season in the top10 and for the daily recap at each event!
Good on you, stoked for you👏💪🤙
Congrats on Your 8th Place, nice! You an Lars are doing an amazing job for the whole windsurfing community, please keep up Your excellent work!
Good luck in the next season !
Wow
Herzlichen Glückwunsch für deinen 8. Platz der Weltrangliste. Vielen Dank auch an Dich und Lars für die erstklassigen Videos.
Top bloke Nico well done !!
Nico, ❤lichen Glückwunsch zum 8. PLATZ 🎉👌😎
GLÜCKWUNSCH auch an Johan Soe 👌für mich der Weltmeister 🤙
Congrats on achieving your goal of Top Ten this year =) My current goal is to attend one of your Bonaire clinics this century =)
Congratulations Nico for your 8th place 🎉. Well done and well deserved. That was a great and excited PWA World Cup. Sorry for Johan Soe. Thanks to you both (Nico and Lars) for sharing this with the community.
thank you for all the videos ( love all ) and for the reactions of the new world champions. pwa couldn't do it unfortunately .
Cheers man!!!
Way to go Nico! I'm always looking forward to your videos and you never let me down. Now work on those jibes so you can make top 5 next season!
It was a great season to watch. Congratz on the 8th place :)
Great result and you have achieved your goal. Congrats! and before Jordy, which is teammember of our windsurfclub at the westeinder in Aalsmeer. Fantastic videos!!
Great video Nico. Congrats with the 8th place you truly deserved it.
Hey Nico, gratuliere! Es lief nicht alles für dich, trotzdem ein sehr respektables Resultat! Wir sind stolz auf dich! 👊🏻
Gratulation zum achten Platz!

a bit of a technical language error:
"call out" is when you point the blame on someone because they did something bad.
"shout out" is probably the expression you're looking for.
Thx for the video’s this year and congrats on the 8th place.👍💪👏🏻👏🏻
3:23 best advice EVER ;-)
Huge congrats for achieving your goal this year!! We often only have eyes for people on the podium but man! being 8th best in the whole world is a massive achievement!!! Heart goes out to Johan but he is a terminator and will come back next year to keep destroying 🤣
Oh and thank you for all the videos, I love so much what you and Lars are doing. Keep doing what you are doing!!! ❤️
He may not even known the sail had problem, if he is solid good, he will be champion next year!
Nico! You should think about racing in Penghu or just for a short trip in November! There will be a slalom race on 23-26 Nov. It’s just an underrated place in Taiwan, with all kinds of conditions - wave, flat water, open sea, and most importantly, consistent strong wind. Legend Alex Mowday base there. Take a look, since you are nearby!
Amazing video! 🔥
Congrats on rising through the ranks!
What helmet do you use? 🤙🏾
congrats with reaching your goal for this season 🍾! you can add that you also successed to release some daily inside follow-ups at each event, which is awesome too !! thank you 🙏
top 5 next year ?
Hi Nico, so far, I did not follow PWA … but I really enjoyed your videos, your comments and your insights… looking forward for next year… thx
Congrats on the 8th place!
Next year even higher :)
Great result Nico! And thank you for the excellent work by you and Lars on making these very polished, entertaining and informative videos.....keep them coming👍
Well done on your top 10 overall Nico
Nico, Congratulations on your 8th place🎉 and I look forward to seeing you back in Japan next year with a higher ranking on PWA tour.
nice!
Geiles Video wieder Nico! Hast du Tips für gute Surf camps/Spots für Beginner. Bin dabei Wasserstart und Harness zu lernen und wäre über Tips für gute Spots dankbar! Vielleicht machst du mal ein Video darüber? Grüße
Glückwunsch zum 8 ten Platz in der Welt Nico . Der Norden rockt ;-)
Congrats on your 8th place and thanks to you and Lars for the hard work keeping us entertained with PWA stuff. Always very interesting what exactly is going on.
Feel sorry for Johan.. sure it was not his intension and he didnt even know.
btw with what stuff did you repair your board?
Bummer for Johan but critical rules apply to all for the relevance of a championship. Stoked for Mateo who has been the king of consistency. Congrats to Amado too and of course congrats to you Nico. #8 in the world is such an achievement!!!
Pity for Johan, but I'm sure he had no idea that his sail wasn't "standard" issue - Especially since his sailmakers are often making changes for the better. He got the latest sail and it had been tweaked but not registered yet as standard production. 20 years old and world champion: WOW.
He will definitely come back next year with a vengeance.
Well done Nico!!! Congratulations on 8th😀
I feel so bad for Johan…. How embarrassing for him….he doesn’t seem like someone that would intentionally cheat.
Thanks to you and Lars for the awesome updates 😀🤙
It was a minor mistake from the manufacturer. He didn't even use the sail and certainly did not make any modifications to it.
@@Scipio-xr2tzcan you explain more? Shame on Point-7 not to ensure its best rider with the perfect equipment…such a waste and frustration for Johan Soe
@@Scipio-xr2tzWhere do you get all these information with such certainty from?
Congratulations on your full return season, Nico! And all that with thriller-like documentation as a big cherry for subscribers, thank you!
I remember the point-7 team watched the livestream with us, because they commented. It would indeed be excellent to get an official response from them and Johan personally. He had an excellent last day in the event, a sail can't compute good tactics and sailing. He'll be back strong!
@@Nico_GER7 johan just posted on instagram that he never used that sail and that the sail difference was off “by some millimeters “. Rules are rules but he didn’t take advantage of that sail so he was the best at that race.
