    Short question Nils. I’ve the insta 360 x3 and a Coros V ertix2. I know how to use the connect function to start/stop recording with the watch h as remote. Could you give a brief explanation where the settings are to record the gps data on the insta 360? Only found an explanation of the insta remote, but not for other devices like the Coros watches. Thanks for sharing ❤ and let’s hope autumn will bring some decent winds ;-)

    Love the heart rate and speed. Can you set the speed setting to knots? Thanks for converting it.
    It looks like a great spot to sail. How big is the chop? the 360s flatten it so it's hard to tell.
    I had to laugh when you said the video was blurry because your dad didn't have his glasses. I have that problem. 😆

      they're the Atan 3mm ones, hard to find in some countries, i actually found them in a Surfshop in France (it's a Frech brand) I love them, they lie around the foot so well like a second skin and almost feels like riding barefoot.

    Does the Insta lose connection to the watch when it is underwater? Does the connection re-establish itself? This is the case with the One X2 and the GPS remote control. The only thing that helps is restarting the camera and restarting the remote control.

    Amazing footage and amazing speed! Your heart rate was pretty high too ( I mean almost 170bpm?), is it normal when you windsurf so fast ? I have a lower heart rate when run really fast! I guess the excitement about the high speed contributes also to this spike... thanx alot for sharing this high-speed-windsurfing-experience with us!!! Ps: what is your current speed record both on fin and on foil?

    Hi Nils. Where is this lake ?
    Take care of your hand and write a report with photos about the fin to the maker ... LOL.
    That's how foils should be used. Light winds: too light to get a really good fin session in.
    Foils are a very similar sport but so different to fins.

  • @powerlooper9121
    @powerlooper9121 4 місяці тому

    You are demonstrating some serious speed. It shows that the width of the board has little to do with it, and it's all about the fin. Interesting. I see that you may have ventilated your fin a bit, at one point, but then a good recovery.

    • @WindsurfingNils
      @WindsurfingNils  4 місяці тому

      width is still important, smaller will always be faster if it's windy and flat enough, but fin plays a major role as well as well as sail size. on the 97 i was using a proto that has a bit thinner profile than regular slalom fins, lacks a bit of power in the lower wind anturally but has really high topspeed potential, but also a bit higher chance of ventilation...

    • @powerlooper9121
      @powerlooper9121 4 місяці тому

      @@WindsurfingNils Why do you think it has a higher chance of ventilation? Based solely on speed, or on fin design, if any?

  • @powerlooper9121
    @powerlooper9121 4 місяці тому

    Disinfect and tape it up... and hope you didn't cut deep enough to lose any function. I invented a trailing tip fin in the '80's. But nobody wanted to try it. It worked great for upwind ability (twist, rather than flex) and it also worked really well for ventilation recovery. Only Kalama copied it, after I explained that it looked like a Blacktip Shark's dorsal fin. But he didn't understand the fluid dynamics involved - since he only copied it for the aesthetic appeal.

      i have to say i didn't REALLY enjoy the foil as much in the first few years and only in the last one year or so really warmed up to it, it's amazing to be surfing 30 knots+ on the foil in less than 15 knots, if it's more the fin becomes so much fun so it's the perfect combination!
