well, this is really fast like hell...anyone who tried to go on a gear over 60 km/h knows what I'm talking about. Need to go & try this channel some day...when they make it a bit more wider :-)
Yup. After a certain wind speed it just seems to come from above and flattens you. But I haven’t tried new equipment. He’s using a pretty big sail too. If the sail is too small then the front of your board just flys up. 55mph steady is doable though. Gotta be strong enough to stick with it. I’d be scared to fly off into the dirt here. !
Quel monstre! Souvenir de le croiser à l’Almanarre ainsi que Robert Teriitehau, Erik Thiémé, et bien sûr une autre légende, Robby Naish! Une époque où l’on pouvait être sur le spot même, au milieu des champions, genre Robert qui se faufile dans les gens en te mettant la main sur l’épaule en passant et en te disant excuse -moi. C’était cool! On les voyait rider de près et c’était énorme!
It’s actually a very good question. You could say it’s a bit of everything simultaneously. Your feet and body weight will compensate excess sail steering and vice versa. Remember at this speed every subtle move is relevant and changes everything.
@@robp3431 Yeah, I used to windsurf and I even once hit 57 km at Brouwersdam. I know that is nothing compared to 100 km. But nobody wants to catapult at that speed, also not at 57km. Water is like cement when it happens it hurts. But going 57km, I was locked in, body stiff and getting scared how to stop. We all know when we windsurf that we do things without knowing why they are happening, like when you go where you look. But I can not recollect if I was still using my feet, or pressure or weight at those speeds, probably have but can not recollect. Locked in the straps and full weight in the harness. Everybody knows, yeah, just open the sail and you will slow down. But opening the sail means you have to unhook or adjust harness position and you will simultaneously move in the straps. This changes everything at that moment. Do it wrong, do it too fast and you will go head first over that sail. And definitely everything is even more different/difficult on a Needle. Anyway that's where my question came from.
They look like little spiders dangling from webs... Thats why I call them kite danglers...Is that really considered catching air, because it doesn't look like catching air to me.
Amazing!! ... but, would have been nice to have some atmos audio tho, under the drone stuff, but I know film making and UA-cam don't always go together, thought my computer had died ... but incredible achievement, and yes what sort of drone is that !! in that wind strength and at those speeds!!
There's a wonderful experience of wiping out at speed, when you bounce and skid along the water for a while before decelerating into it. At 100 kph, though, eyewear is necessary to prevent the inevitable eyepouching of water from ripping out a lower lid. I've only experienced the packing and stretching at lower speeds a number of times, later worrying about bacteria finding my eye socket a warm and hospitable nest. As many of you know, facial sanding tends to occur when ambient wind rises. At 25 knots it's mostly only knee height, but increases until painful at head level. Other amusements occur, spray itself becomes painful. Naked windsurfers, be warned.
amazing point of view! good job Pilot ! Thanks for sharing with us the performance of Bjorn is it a Boom with only one side ? and a carbon reinforcement ?
The second POV (boom) is from a different attempt than in the first (drone) and third (Helmet) POV . In the second POV he uses a special one side boom. In any case it is scary...
Yes, I notice that too. He/they must had multiple setups to try that day. Most people have no idea how terrifying it is to go at that speed, hooked in on such shallow water. I notice how he hug so close the the lee side that has the least ripples. A bad move will mean bad spill and break a few bones. Would be so nice if they include the peak, and average wind speed of the day. The web says the wind average 35 knots+ at least 3 times a week during the event period.
My God. That’s insanely fast. My record is 60km/u with a regular board. That’s nothing compared to his speed. I'm always afraid I'll fall and destroy all my gear.
Cool, my record is 65 km/hr. in 12-14 meter pr. second wind speed with a custom pin tail board. I would have done faster with shorter double fins at rear end, instead of a single fin. The board tend to slide a little at high speed. 2 fins make it more steady.
When I windsurf'd (i kite now) I was a speed merchant. Uh, this puts me to shame. Dunkers is a legend alongside Robby. Awesome video.
What a legend! Phenomenal speed by a modern day Viking.
Increible. Great years ago, great now. For me. The greatest windsurfer.
And Robby 🙂
The drone shot is epic!
That's fantastic! Well done!

Ballz of steel
That was awesome!!!
43.8mph was my fastest recorded over 100m at the ditch in S. TX....those were fun times !!!
Who. What kind of insane drone was this that could do that in that wind?
Epic!
Mama mia… reminds of Weymouth and Ste-Marie-de-la-Mer in the golden age (eighties)! Bjorn was and is still from another planet…
Met bjorn at a speed event at sotavento back in the 90s. Legend then, Goat now!
dont say goat, that's a reference to lucifer. repent and avoid hell, believe in JEsus
@@maxxseeNo
Maybe a stupid question. At this speed, does one steer these boards also with feet and body weight or this this done alone with the sail?
It’s actually a very good question. You could say it’s a bit of everything simultaneously. Your feet and body weight will compensate excess sail steering and vice versa. Remember at this speed every subtle move is relevant and changes everything.
It's feet to pressure the board, very subtle movement which is more reactive than thought

Master,experience, power,technique,the best!!!!!
Legend Forever.
So much cooler than kite dangling.
Hahahaha!!!! Totally agreed!!!
Windsurfing like playing tennis with a wooden racket.

Let me know next time you see a windsurfer jumping 30m
@@kentclark9616 on a ski ramp you jump 200m , diferent dogs.
I’m here for the fpv footage. Good job pilot.
Legend
Björn the best
Does anyone noticed the different booms he used in this video? What was the fastest?
I noticed. He was hooked into a double boom on the first ride... a single on the second run.
Amazing!! ... but, would have been nice to have some atmos audio tho, under the drone stuff, but I know film making and UA-cam don't always go together, thought my computer had died ... but incredible achievement, and yes what sort of drone is that !! in that wind strength and at those speeds!!
Crazy good! What was the windspeed?
Worthington Windsurfers.
35 to 38 knots
What's the wind speed and what direction is it coming from? From the way the sail is pulled all the way in, maybe pretty close on the bow?
Espectacular
Let me ask the sail size and the litres of the board ?
BJORN IS THE BEST

thanks! there is much better drone footage coming ;-)
Wow, incredible!
Genial!!! un maestro el Bjorn !!
Amazing!
Dunkerbeck is the GOAT for me...
dont say goat, that's a reference to lucifer. repent and avoid hell, believe in JEsus
It looks like rather shellow water there. The race was dangerous for such phenomenal speed, that is why he cried in one moment.
Drone dude> Legend
speeeeeeeeeed - respect!
J’aime bien le petit cri de plaisir pendant le run, ça veut tout dire 😎
i dont even wind surf but this is amazing
Only amazing!!!!!!!!!!!
Cool and brutal

I noticed the boom was different at the 1:40 mark.
Different booms??

This channel looks pretty shallow, and at 100km/hr you'd probably break your neck as well!!
Thats about the top speed I was clocked at and man I thought I was flying. Perfect conditions there.
GPS peak at 75km/h and that was bloody terrifying - I've no idea how 100+ happens!

What about hurting yourself?😅 one can always buy another gear.
Yessssss !!!!
Ya sé porqué lleva el reloj, es para comprobar cuanto se detiene el tiempo al acercarse a la velocidad de la luz.
Terri Myatt NAylor of Wrightsville Beach needs to be in this
know that smile gotten it myself not sailboarding but the same smile...
wow....guess what the sensation is when you are actually on the board....
great video, epic run
HOw long in miles was that run? Did not know a drone could go that fast
In the side-camera shoot, there were two Boom, and on the other side, there was one Booom... 🤔🤔🤔🤔
i'd recommend a face mask for that speed! where is that place with all that wind??
We filmed this in Namibia ( Lüderitz ) at the speed channel.
you can't even tell how windy it is
20212 he must be very very old, but even though he was lightning fast!
Wow!
Wow wow wowwwww...🤙🤙🤙💪💪💪
Just need a cheetah to race now!
Blimey.
Unplug the brain and .... GO!!!!! 👏👏👏😀
Good job Bjorn!!!
How can drone fly in such wind????!!!!🤔
👍😎🇫🇷
Woooo hoooo!
Where's my BVI brother Finian..Him and Dunkerbeck need a face off.
so damn fast!!!
making me dizzy just watching
what the hell's he wearing a watch for? you'd think he's in a hurry or something
Added ballast. For speed record you actually need to have some body mass.
Nice run Perry speedrecord 53.7 ,kn 🏆🌍🤟😎🖕
Of course; Björn is a legend, but this is max 80-85 km/h neeeeeever 100 km/h ...
Over 100kmh? Show us
lol
Just did
Perfekt! Sehr sympathischer Star, nur die Kamerführung nervt.
Water looks to be about 2 feet deep. Don't fall
😳👍😎🏄♂️💪🐋
¡¡¡AAAAAAA¡ Como me caiga no me cogen ni con pinzas.
So Fast No Sound
Well ive done 84kmph and i dont brag about it
I'm so sick of shitty drone footage.
