After a tough opening day in Sylt, Nico Prien shares his candid thoughts on the state of foil racing in this honest recap of Day 1 action.
NICO PRIEN: “Little disclaimer: Obviously talking in the moment and for a fast paced YouTube video some details are left out. It’s just a personal opinion and my path in the sport. What works for me and I feel is not for everyone.
Generally windfoiling has a very important part in our sport – especially for gusty and light wind places and for people, who can’t deal with the physical demands and hard hits of fin windsurfing anymore. Foil competitions can be exciting too – and just like everything in our sport: the more wind the better it gets.
Anyway, we keep pushing full power through the highs and lows – that’s the only way!”
