Comment by Greg Lloyd on April 12, 2009 at 10:09pm - Hi Andrew, Where do you live? I was into windsurfing (big time) back in the 80s, 90s too. Right up until we discovered kiting. Now I'm addicted to kitesurfing. I have one other video of us flying a two line wipika kite in a field with no harnes and hot launching each other. I also have some classic windsurf books which are hillarious. I have one of Jimmy Lewis first kiteboards. That board in the video is a windsurf Cobra needle board, which lives in my basement museum.
