This is a newly edited clip of the nonplaning genius down in Bonaire:

It gives new meaning to the phrase "flying the sail".

Yes, big cheese, he is. The guy works at a rental center where he has the big board and sail permanently rigged and next to the water. He goes out for five minutes maybe a half dozen times per day when all his customers are out on the water. During breaks he's a "regular" planing freestyler, which is quite competitive in Bonaire.

I was once working on some back to boom tricks, while other windsurfers were doing standard stuff, and a friend on the beach overheard some passersby saying "that guy seems to be getting it all wrong!"

Wrong side of the board, of the sail, wrong direction, looking the wrong way, with the sail whipping around. What fun!
