....Windsurfing just about to completely gone. I moved to Maui over 20 years ago...those amazing days nothing but windsurfing day in day out, seven days a week.....Today, only two sails out there . The same greedy industry killed such amazing sport!
How did the industry kill windsurfing? The gear is better than ever. Lasts a long time. Most of the younger folks are learning kitesurfing and wing foiling, that’s why there are less windsurfers of there.
@@OhNoNotAgain42 I was out windsurfing at the hook in Hood River today... I was going back and forth, working on my jibes while the wing crowd was falling all over the place and sucking really bad. I don't know why nobody wants pick up windsurfing anymore. Its all just older people like myself who have been doing it for decades. Kites suck because you can't put them down and rest. Wings suck because only circus performers can actually make them work.
Great video!! The combo of drone footage and other videos really captures the feeling of sailing good days in the Gorge!!
Thank you so much!
Miss the Gorge😢 I’m living in Baja now…still windsurfing 😅
Fantastic! The drone footage was really spectacular. You had some good wind!
Thanks a lot!

No, still very crowded here in the Gorge, amazed at how she seemed to be out there virtually alone! So nice to have the water all to yourself!
