Hi Nico! I am the guy from Andorra you met in Tarifa last August...As I told you, I have been to Fehmarn and also to Kiel, and I am familiar with the Denmark sight from there. Congrats for the adventure!. An (dangerous because of sharks) idea for your next cruising could be cuba to miami. I know some guys fled Cuba by windsurfing in the early 2000s. You'd be recreating their acomplishment. Best Regards!!! PS: RIP for the drone...

As great as windsurfing is, it can be so much more fun when you have a destination. I live in Chicago and have had the chance to windsurf to work a few times. Trouble keeping things dry though! Love the videos Nico, keep it up!

Great video! My Dad was from Denmark. He actually worked at LEGO many years ago when the company made wood toys. He moved to Canada to avoid military service when he was 20 and got married. Many years later our family moved to Central America so my parents could retire in the warm weather. He sadly died last year at 84 years old. Anyways really interesting video!!! I would like to try wing foiling one day. Watching from Belize 🏝️

Somewhat twenty years ago I went over from Naxos to Paros once with two buddies. It was no problem. In Tarifa we were always talking about going over to Morocco. Once we out there and shouting at each other 'now we 're going over!'. We did it, I was in front, surfing, surfing, surfing. Once I looked back, both friends not visible. They returned already. I went quite close, everything clear to see in the Moroccan side. Then jibed and went back. It was no problem, just the huge ships were a bit scary, but enough place in between.

Hi Nico I’d love a set of those dry cases/bags. Me and a friend are doing long distance sailing, at the moment we are sailing around the Swedish island Gotland 🌊 We are using old Mistral Equipe boards and 7.9 sails both of us to stay at the same pace. As of today we have covered roughly a third of the island. Lovely to see you also joined in on “adventure sailing”🤙 Best regards Peter🌴🌴

After a 29 year break, I am coming back to the sport (I windsurfed from 79-94 and experienced the evolution of one design through the custom era). I enjoy watching your videos. Your enthusiasm for the sport is very infectious. Thank you for all of the work and informative videos. It's inspiring to see all the young kids coming up AND the older folks like myself (58 years) come back to the sport!

Greetings from Denmark. What an accomplishment. I Never thought about crossing Der Ostsee on a surfboard, and you did it with foils, to get more speed, which I think is so cool. You did a great job on planning and preparing the trip in a safe way. When I started the video I thought it was only one way and did not imagine it even was possible to return. I thought it would not be an option as you clearly would be too exhausted, so I was waiting to see how you had planned the return to Germany. You made me want to windsurf again. Just for now I hang on to kayaking the sea. Thanks for a great video.
