Apart from the information and the mighty video lesson which we have already published about this, we just received a press release from Fox Sports. Here we read that the records of Rolf and Katja have been even faster!
Press release
Airush team riders
- Rolf van der Flight 47.36 knots (87.71 km / h), old record rose
name of Dirk Doppenberg 44.49 knots (82.4 km / h)
- Katja Roose 39.58 knots (73.30km / h)
Namibia where the 2008 Luderitz Speed Record Attempt took place
has. If you have followed it on the internet you have seen it for real
has been a slaughter of old records. Because many records
several times in a row it may have been difficult to do
to keep an overview. The record attempt is now really over and the
records are fixed.
In addition to many personal and national records, it is also Outright Speed
Sailing Record spectacularly improved. The old record of 49.09 knots
(windsurfer, Antoine Albeau) is disconnected and now owned by kite surfer
Alex Caizergues 50.56 knots (93.66 km / h). This means that the
magical limit of 50 knots has been broken. Something where already very, very much
money has been put into it by windsurfers and especially various sailing boats.
