2013 CV / LUDERITZ IS COMING

Countdown has really started for Luderitz 2013, a lot of new and old speedsters will be there. Luderitz is now the meca for speed, with no more world cup events everybody is tuning up specifically for the outright windsurfing speed record. Hopefully we will get a world championships again to run along side record attempts. Looking back over my windsurfing career I sure have entered enough of them.
