Speed Sailing over 30 MPH
Long Island has some great flatwater windsurfing sites. This particular one on the south shore is particularly shallow and protected by the barrier islands.
I pulled out my vintage (90's equipment) Tiga 260 and 6 meter North Spectro.  While pro speed sailors reach speeds in the 50 range, sailing in the 30's and making planing jibes is still a rush!
Didn't have a helmet cam so these videos were taken holding the camera with my mouth. (TEETH CAM) Under Construction  Videos coming

Dennis, another addicted friend. Helmets advised!  We sail upwind to the flat water behind the islands.
