Love it......can't wait to see it at Wet 'n' Wild or Jamberoo.

No need for wind and no worries with sharks. Just watch out for all the tourists.

Interesting though that all the sailors find it difficult to control there manouvers in the air without the power in the sail.

I notice, they've also been doing this for freestyle (i.e. get speed then do freestyle move) and i think its a great way to practive in low/no wind . Thanks for sharing!

Why do they have a harness on. Pose value ?

Because it was blowing 30 knots cross off and then the wind died so they had to get the jet skis out.

Nah, just kidding with ya, good pick up.

perhaps something to do with backslapping from coming down with no wind?

Whats the point of attaching the sail It would just get in the way?

maybe they should get rid of the harness and the sail and the jet ski and surf it....

Neat vid, thanks for sharing.

Lol @ tow in windsurfing though. What's next, tow in kitesurfing?

I would have thought the tricks would "fly" very differently with no wind - needs fans!

I recon windsurfing is great, but thats the lamest thing I have ever seen. Can't believe so many people are stoked on it
