i heard in the ledge to lancelin he was on something like a 9.5m.

conditions were 20+ knots and very large swell.

how he was able to sail so deep off the wind [from the 3rd mark to 4th mark]
in those very large swells with strong gusts coming through, on a sail that size, only god knows!

i needed to be on a 5.0m or smaller to reach the 4th mark in one leg,the wind really picked up.

to retire while still in top 5 or 10 in the world, i don't think so.

he's the man period

Bjorn Dunkerbeck is the Roger federer of windsurfing, i dont think there will be ever another bjorn dunkerbeck.

I met him in 2002 in the Mentawai Is. He was on a nearby boat, and I went over to say hi.
He was a nice guy and I had half hour chat. Huge bloke !!

Hey what board did bjorn use in the ledge to lancelin?? cant believe the big boy used a 9.5 m that's awesome, got to tell me mate that

I have a pic of him up in my room of him riding a 7.8 warp F2 north sail in 12-14 knots and it looks like he is sailing in 30 knots, he is flying. He seems to like big sails
