I liked the video a lot, it’s entertaining and it shows the real picture how hard it is to achieve high level of riding and making wave moves
In every sport you must get lots of hard beatings to go on higher level of performance
Regarding comments about equipment – it’s all about the rider skills not the equipment
I am sure top riders can perform high level of windsurfing on any equipment of the top brands
Not a vid that Ricardo should be proud of. Of course even the greats do wipeout and pain. This Naish equipment is a setback for the venezuelan imho.
