Didn't know there were still that many windsurfers ;) Looks like fun, I wonder how the windfoil and windsurf times compared

The 3 groups raced separately and probably in different wind conditions.

At t=6:30 in the windfoiling vid, a wind-dinger keeps up with a power committee boat, and appears to pass it.
