Second day on the Luderitz Speed Canal

New pr on max speed and average. First goal from this trip is reached. But still too slow compared to Patrik, Anders and Hans. Maybe i must just forget about that and sail my own course.

Started directly at 13 pm when the course was open, to get used to higher speeds and stronger winds on the canal. By the time the canal was at its best i just blew up my arms and was not able to sail anymore for a while. Next windy day i just have to wait a bit longer. Helped Hans a bit as his speed where increasing. I'm now better prepared for next windy day, can't wait. But first i like to get back my energy and muscles, so please no wind for the next days. I will sit in a nice bubble bath somewhere.

5,4 production straight out of the bag pretty impressed!!! Was maybe a bit to stoked in my mission to get 50+ I used up to much energie in the start of the day so couldn't close the gap at the end. Still believe I can brake the record when we pump in more water found the sweetspot on my rig aswell now. SUPER $]£~£~!>{${!|? STOKED !!!!! Canal was choppy as hell but kept on pushing out 48knot runs it gives me a lot of confidence for stronger conditions Big thanks to my Sponsors; Z-fins, NP, JP for all the support and hopefully Vitaalwork will do aswell this year. And to all the nice word and support I get from the homefront. I'll keep on going till I get it.......... BLUE STEEL!!!!! For more info look me up on Facebook Hans Kreisel Speedwindsurfer I'll put on some pics and all the official runs.

Obviously very good conditions, but I agree with Jacque that it could still be a lot better. I hope they sort it out for you so we can really see what is possible. Smile
