You need to wear a helmet, I know of someone who had a serious head injury at quite low speeds doing this.
📌 You’re right. I’m gonna pin this comment to the top. I mentioned this in the video, too.
Don’t take me as an example, I sometimes am a little reckless 🙄.
@@Nico_GER7 very important and it‘s not uncool to protect your head
@@uglybirds70 absolutely not uncool. I'll make it even cooler with my custom helmet some day :)
Forgot my helmet this day.. The whole thing was really spontaneous. Usually I go with helmet and really recommend it to anyone. Next session with helmet again! :)
@@Nico_GER7 have uou seen the original land surfer ..made in france called a speedsail..longer than the one you used ..and for the beach ....they are suppa fassssst ..60 mph easy
‘’Don’t forget, always use an old boom” ... like the NP 2020 full carbon model that was on the slalom sail 😂 great video Nico, and happy windsurfing for all in 2021!
🤷♂️🤷♂️
hard to believe this has not gained a lot more enthusiasts over the years. I absolutely love it and it is so easy compared to on the water. Great for any windsurfer, skills learned on sk8 are soon achieved when in water.
Anton is just build different. That was insane. Love.
Thanks for posting this - windskate deserves more attention. Been riding for 20 years on and off, mainly when it is too cold to windsurf. I always wear a helmet and wrist guards. I only wish there were more good places to sail. Lately I am using an inflatable sail - not as fast, but super easy.
Starkes Video! Aber komm Nico ne Duck jibe oder downwind 360 wären schon noch drin gewesen. Mega Cool das du aber auch neue Dinge ausprobierst und so noch mehr Abwechslung bietest! Daumen hoch
Ja, hast recht 😄 ist auch echt nicht so schwierig auf dem wind skater, aber war zu sehr auf das gefreestyle und speeding konzentriert.
verrückt 🤣 aber coole Sache
besser mit Helm!
Anton is the best I have seen. I have windskate since the 80s.
Great video. Riding a wind sail is unusual and beautiful.
Anton Master of windskating bike trailers and of course sourdough 🤙
He's already kinda famous 🤷♂️
Wet sourdough :p
In Berlin on Tempelhof it's very popular and I go there a lot.
Ja man. Man hat einfach so viel Platz und der Wind reicht eigentlich fast immer für spielchen aus
That's a good advise to get some more space for higher speeds. Thanks!
Ja man Tempelhofer Feld ist absolut krass für sowas!
Perhaps I will visit you soon. Have been there once for a windskate shooting in 2016. Really unique and beautiful atmosphere... Which wind direction is best? Around 20 knots would be great for a proper 100 km/h speed attempt I think :p
Mega speedddd!
I used to do it all the time as a kid especially between races on the water with my friends. So much fun
Very much a head of me. I start a few moths ago and are just a begginer. I'm using the sail directly to the board without that steel support, but i think you are right and it will help a lot with more distance to footstreps. Have nice winds!
Very interesting. Have been Wind Skating almost 20 years, mostly sand and dirt after cracking a helmet on pavement. I wear hockey pads when on pavement. My converted mountain board has 10 inch wheels and allows for adjusting stiffness of trucks for front and back which is a big help transitioning from tricks to speed. With 4 wheels, wheel wobble is a problem at higher speeds. In USA, Hilton Head is a great spot. Please put up more videos on this. Thanks
Cool, like always
My buddy Mike and I built a home-made windskate back in the late 80's - a real challenge considering where gear technology was back then...it was super dangerous and hard to control (especially in 10-15 knots of wind), but a ton of fun. After a lot of bandages and road rash, we eventually figured out that we should wear knee & elbow pads - unfortunately wearing a helmet didn't occur to us!
Hatte neulich auch mein 25a altes windskate wegen Lockdown wieder ausgegraben. Kann den Rat, gute Schutzkleidung zu tragen, nur unterstützen..
ja, ist halt kein Wasser 🤷♂️
I went windskating regularly with my friends in South Wales over 30 years ago. If there isn't much wind then it's a great way to practice manoeuvres and you still get a bit of the windsurfing buzz! Now I live in Saarland in Germany where there is never much wind so I am looking for a good site to start windskating again.
Tried this with a ripstick. Ripstick has 2 castors and carves more like a wave board. It's a lovely feeling.
Anton!!!! Mega!
Thank you! :)
I used to use my gear on my local lake in Maine USA. I took a rest at a friend's dock and managed to puncture the sail on a dock post.
Cool video. I sometimes go windscating when it's too cold and maybe not enough wind for windsurfing.
I've dreamed about using the farmers fields here right after they rake and its super smooth. We have square KM's of land like that and plenty of wind.
Your friend is so good :o
So... this is your new board for the slalom sail ! ;)
yup 😂
Ugh...I've wanted to do this forever!
Your video is now more neat and simple. Bravo.
good to hear :-)
This is soooo cool hope for more vidios like this
Good to hear 🤘
Love this. Wish I could jump my newly built windskater that good. I was able to do a little hop while riding it on the sand. Going to try it today if the weather allows for it. It's a mental thing.
mine is a 1m longboard dancer with mountainboard trucks and wheels. I added straps from my old tabou board. Stripped the padding off them as it had decayed. It works like a charm. Just need to get used to it and get more time riding it.
My fastest measured speed was 45kmh. That was the first time I did this years ago. Funny thing is 45kmh isn't that fast but scary as hell when you are doing it on a 1.50m wide bikelane with barbed wire on the side. One mistake and everything could have been ripped apart. But it was a lot of fun going this fast with a buddy who was landkiting on the other side of the barbed wire.
I am able to go much faster now. But I never measure my speed.
Cool to see this it inspires me to continue during the colder days.
Some adrenaline? ;) I'm interested in your speed data...
You’ll be pleased to know I have a picture of me doing that in the old Asda car park near Fort Brockhurst Gosport (there was no Sunday trading... so car parks were empty) on a very short skate board and a 4.1m storm sail in about 1983.
You’re not the first old chap, but you are dizzingly good at it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
sounds sweet! for sure not the first... I think this has been around forever
I got a buhala board for 50 euro years ago second hand. Unfortunately hard to find accesable places with enough space and wind. ( Or next to the water where it mostly is more interesting to go surf when there is wind :D ) The Speedsail of Norbert blanc is also a nice one to test for speed on hard sand Nico. 🙂
hello, I just built one because I wanted to buy it like that but having a pair of longboards that I rarely used I decided to try to modify them and now I have the skate too and I use it with my 5.6 of the simmerstile
perfect!! have fun, Paolo.
I recently purchase a mountain board to practice on when the wind is too light for the water. Also plan to fabricate ice blades for some ice sailing. Enjoyed the skate sailing video.
that's so awesome! congrats!
thank for video.
I found the board on Amazon, will try to find used sail, boom and mask set. Just to try out.
Too funny😁 I just built one of these on my longboard yesterday and am heading out today for my first try. The lakes are too cold with some ice so I thought this might be a fun way to get my fix and practice some sail manoeuvres. I am using an old Ezzy 4.0 wave sail from the early 90’s. Reading below, I think a helmet would be a good idea👍 Wish me luck😎 I’m 50 btw and my teenage boys think I’m krazy🤪 They are right. It’s called a mid-life crisis😄
Haha. Good luck! Don't forget the helmet please..
Me and the mates went to an abandoned airstrip and did the same but with training kites. Definitely prefer the kites because no gear really gets damaged. Asphalt and gear scraping on it is a bit of a no no unless you have a boom you don't care about haha.
not surprised you do shit like that 😂😂
Took the old Longboard of my son and mounted my old, cheap surf rigg on it. „Cheeses“ - what a fun! 😃 Coll to see - there are others! 👌🏻 …who definitively got it out, not like me.☹️🤣🤣 Great Video guys!
MFG5 ist halt einfach nice für alles
My nephew built a land board for me a few years ago. I take it out once or so per winter to remind me that: 1) Water makes softer crashes 2) the thing terrifies me and 3) I am old.
Sounds funny though :p
Rollt!
schon irgendwie
Moin. Das ist ja ne geile idee für den Winter, hab noch so nen olen Rollersurfer Mk2 aus den 80ern mit luftreifen. bin dammit immer nach Romo gefahren :) Wie ist es auf den Platz, ist da auch noch Rasenfläche wo man fahren könnte, oder nur der alte Platz? Kommt man da entlich wieder mit nem Auto hin oder ist immer noch zu? OK. Top weiter so ;) ! Grüße auch aus Kiel ;)
Honestly, if I could I'd windskate more than windsurf. On a good quality tarmac with a longboard it needs a tiny breeze for fun with gybes, tacks, 360s etc. I used mountain board as a session saver when going to beaches and expected it won't be good enough for windsurfing. Sometimes staying dry on a wide and long beach like West Sands in St Andrews, Scotland is so much better. Had a few beautiful cruising days on sand with windskating
haha, wow more than windsurfing? not sure about that 😂
If i had a space and skate like that i would defently try it!
google maps helps a lot ;)
I wanna try that one day ,that look so cool ,are you gonna be sponsored by futurefly?
Hey just a question what do you do with you old boards, because you showed us you get 3 boards but every year so what happens with the board from the last year
Do you have the plans for the metal base ?
I tried once in Muriwai New Zealand on a miles long beach. Good tips but for me personally I have no suitable place to ride here in Stockholm but plenty of open space on the water.
that sucks, but if you get enough days on the water it doesn't matter...
@@Nico_GER7 Not really a problem with the "new invention" foil though and parts of the windsurfing experience is also a connection to water, wind and nature. So landboarding on long sandbeach is ok, on a parkinglot or football field, not so much, in my opinion anyway
Looking forward to your new videos with your new slalom and foil boards. Will it be custom prototype or standard boards? My best bet is AV boards..or Patrik
Better than me.
Hat der Freestyle-Hering die bessere Technik oder ist der einfach nur 25 kg leichter? Nee, war´n Joke. Anton, super coole Moves 👍👍👍
beides vermutlich 😄
Nice video, as usual! I looked up the "mountainboard" brand (Next Boarding Generation in Kiel). Nice stuff but one thing I did not see was the mountingkit for the sail baseplate... Is that something you have to make yourself? Or did I miss something?
Yes, Anton does it himself. Just message him, he'll sell it to you at his own cost of making them. He's motivated to get people wind skating.
@@Nico_GER7 Thanks!
Hi Nico, wieviel Bar habt ihr auf den Reifen ? Hatte damals mein Mountainboard auch umgebaut, aber noch nicht so den richtigen Reifendruck gefunden!
(Damals bin ich in den 90ern auch mit Skateboard gefahren ;-); heutzutage nehme einige auch Longboards!)
Mfg 5 Gelände beste
Nice video, I’m actually waiting to receive a board from a Kickstarter project. My goal being to go train on the grass when the wind is light or no time to drive to the beach. Great subject, do you think it will shorten the gybe learning curve?
Good question... it might
It is a great help for learning to gybe. I used a longboard on tarmac parking lots, mountain board on sandy beaches and its just pure fun and relax. Gybes and other moves are slower without crazy forces like on windsurf so you can focus really well on each step of the move.
Very very cool. You should check if there are any freestyle competitions - Or even better: Start a winter competition with invitations and sell these. Also start a new PWA !! PSA Pro Skate Association !
Ideas ideas.
Cheers and a happy new year to you Nico and friends (including the sausage dog!).
Ideas over ideas 😄😄. Sounds good though.
@@Nico_GER7 I know of a guy who has started a windsurfing museum simply by asking people to donate their old equipment to him.
He drives all over EU to collect it and he's now supported by his local council who have offered him a large hangar and he actually gets people to pay to visit ....
They can also use the boards for vintage races etc.
No problems starting a regional competition to interest regional sponsors in Wintertime when there is less sailing.
@@team3383 that's actually a really cool story. just shows you that with passion and motivation you can do anything. ahh yeah, and time. you need time. 😄
@@Nico_GER7 Time ...... talk about it.
I've been folowing you Nico and all I can say is "Bravo" a they say for everything you have achieved. You are a great sailor. One level above most. Really up there among the very best.
My heart stopped last year - and I'm only 54 ! - I'm not ill or sick. It just stopped !
63 minutes without oxygen and then - somehow - it started again.
I don't understand, and the doctors don't fully understand either !
There is a saying: "We all have 2 lives and only those who have lived the first realise that and live the second" !!! Exatly what has happened to me.
I know what you mean by 'time'.
If you have enough projects to keep you busy that's cool.
Don't overdo things like I did ... Too much adrenaline on a regular basis. Snowboarding, windsurfing, sailing, motorbikes ... All to the fullest.
Cheers and a very happy new year to you and your family and friends.
I'm currently hooked up to a computer which is keeping me alive.
Reason I spend so much time on the web.
Rock on Nico :-)
@@team3383 first off: thanks for your compliments!! really appreciate that. what a heartwarming and insightful story man. I'm just getting started on seeking adrenaline, knowing that we all won't get out here alive. wouldn't you say all the adrenaline and amazing times doing the sports you love was worth it? say your heart would've not started beating again? (god forbid!)... just curious. Always think there's lots to learn for people who have gone through more than I have thus far. All the best.
Muss man bei so einem Board etwas bei den Achsen beachten? Gibt ja welche mit diesem 2 Federn an der Achse und welche die so sind wie vom Skateboard nur in groß.
I never tried windskating but definitely will try when I've got a mountain skate board.
Awesome!
With a longboard its also very much fun!
Share concrete waves 😎 It‘s always cool to see some other ways of sailboarding
Also possible with old school sails 😀
@@Nico_GER7 next time I will have the original wooden boom
@@sharewavestv you need to get out more!
Sieht witzig aus - ich würde ss probieren
I did this about 30 some years ago at English Bay in Vancouver, B.C., Canada. Couldn't believe how the apparent wind builds.
Yeah indeed! That’s why you just need a lot of space
@@Nico_GER7 no kidding. That's an awesome board Anton has, and he is tremendously skilled on that set up (nice pneumatic wheels)
@@Nico_GER7 those ramp jumps look crazy!
Yeah, quite stunning how he gets the pop by stopping the front wheels. Couldn’t figure this out in my few tries.
@@Nico_GER7 that nose-wheelie is awesome!
Holy
...Moly
@@Nico_GER7 omgosh
Possibly in the Artic with more wind? Combined with dog 🐕 mushing??😮👀🤔👍
Like the idea!
Nice Session! And New Mountain/ landboards coming soon to surf depot kiel in the the next weeks of Januar...☝check it....👍🤙
put the link of the website here so people can find it...
Gut zu wissen.. :)
Gute Action!!
Aber warum ein Landboard oder ein Longboard nehmen? Ein normales Skateboard mit Nose und Tail ist sehr viel mehr variabler. Der Mastfuss sitzt dann genau auf der Vorderachse, dadurch kann man sowohl Tail- und Nosemanuals machen, sowie Spins dabei. Auch lassen sich superschöne lang gezogene Slides mit den harten Rollen machen, die Slides kann man dann mit Up- und Downwind-Rotationen kombinieren, allerdings sollte man Rolle grösser 54mm nehmen. Das Board sollte ein längeres und breiteres sein, eher wie ein Poolboard, kein Streetstyle. Hat das Anton schon mal probiert?
Ja mein allererster Windskateversuch vor 100 Jahren war tatsächlich mit einem normalen (kleinen Streetstyle) Skateboard und Fußschlaufen. Nach 5 min war die Session mit Platzwunde beendet 😅
Macht für meine Zwecke schon alles Sinn so, wie ich das mache. Aber prinzipiell geht alles mit Rollen. Kann halt recht wackelig werden, wenn der Achsabstand zu kurz ist.. und schnell unkontrollierbar. Eine Mischung aus Mountainboard und Longboard (Rollen) sollte für meine Zwecke auf Asphalt perfekt sein. Hab so einen Eigenbau auch in Betrieb und das Ding ist extrem schnell und spaßig. Falls es dich interessiert, wie es aussieht: instagram.com/antonmunz/ . Aber prinzipiell bin ich immer offen für Neues und sehr gespannt, was aus so manchen Tüfteleien entsteht. Momentan bin ich auf der Suche nach dem schnellsten Windskateboard, das ziemlich wahrscheinlich mit (großen) Longboardrollen ausgestattet sein wird.
Another setup I have seen is take a long board type skateboard and mount a 2 piece base to the deck.
yup 😊
Bonjour ou avez bous achete la base en métal pour le mat?
Do you think that training on that “Gerät” is helping windsurfing skills or it is too different?
We sail these on the beaches and dry desert lakes here in California - super fun!
You can buy boards made for skatesailing online from www.streetsailing.net These feature a wide, comfortable deck with Norbert Blanc speedsail trucks and wheels.
Good as it gets.
Hi can I ask what thickness in millimetres the front bracket is for the mast or u j joint? Many thanks
Hello can you answer about the metal plate? Thanks
You're new board brand will be futerfly beat @nico
Who knows 🤷♂️
is there a kit for inline skates?
I’ve done it it works better with roller skate 🛼
Bonjour pourriez-vous me dire comment realiser et faire pour mettre en place la bande en metal pour la voile? Dimensions? Materiau? Merci beaucoup
I started off skateboarding, and will 100% try this at some point. I've seen a windsurf setup attached to skiis and used on ice, but this is a first. RIP the boom and sail though if you bail on the pavement!
Can you do a video with Anton again? Maybe some freestyle windskate tutorials. I would love to know how to do this.
Good idea... :)
Speedsailing was more fun 30 years ago.... a speedsail had a 2m long deck with large plastic BMX bike wheels, and could easily reach 50-60mph, but on sand beaches. so more space, more fun!

Thanks for the informations and the picture! Are there any statistics about the speeds? 60 mph is f.. fast.. Would be happy about further informations. Thank you in advance! :)
Can you make more videos from wind skating
Maybe when we try to set an actual record. 70km/h plus should be possible. Let's see when I get to do it again.

Where is the new board reveal? We want to know!
what if this is the new board? 🤷♂️
Hey looking to get a land board. I looked at Trampa but those guys are shit at customer service. Looking for info on trucks bushings dampers or barrels.
I ice sail mostly in winter. But guts got 2 wings so looking to use a board other than my skate board
Does it feel like normal windsurfing?
Not exactly but pretty close. The speed feels even faster ;). How I do the freestyle tricks it feels quite similar as well. Learned like 99 percent of the tricks I do on the water on land via windskating first
MFG5 Skatepark?
Yes
How do you gybe and then change foot position?
Just go switch in one direction
@@antonm7138 you do that anyway but the mast foot and foot straps don’t make it that simple
Fanatic or starboard
Punkrock
Fantastic video of windskating but in my opinion you should wear a helmet and some other protections. Safety first!
Cheers Markus⛵🌞🤟
you're absolutely right. I pinned the respective comment to the top, so people are reminded.
@@Nico_GER7 thank you🌞
Wo bekommt man das metallteil für die mastbase Befestigung ?
Danke 🤙🏻
verkauft Anton dir gerne zu Produktionskosten, musst ihn nur anschreiben.
@@Nico_GER7 wo finde ich „Anton“ ?
Wie im Video erklärt, ist der Link zu seinem Instagram Profil ist in der Video-Beschreibung.
Very funny
I got a mountain board but I need a steel base plate
Get in contact with Anton, he’ll sell them to you
@@Nico_GER7 thank you so much
Any link to that board company?
Does it help to practice jibes ?
Extremely effective way to practice jibes...
how to ride without a JP board ! 😅
😄😄
Have you ever speed surfed?
Where can I buy the board?
google "mountainboard"
You can do freestyle as well
you can 😜
Is this why you separated with JP Australia?
yes, to pursue my dream career in wind skating 😂😂
All you need is an airport! :p
Without airplanes :p
Spock 🖖 540. It's easy.
Hey Nico,
Can you connect me with Anton? Does he have a website?
