The 100 km/h mark is very close. This weekend at the Lüderitz Speed Challenge in Namibia, Antoine Albeau (52 years old) broke his own windsurfing speed record which dates from 2015 (98.66 km/h, 53.27 knots). Powered by the powerful wind sweeping the shallow channel dedicated to attempts (25-35 cm in certain areas), the Rochelais, twenty-six world champion titles, increased his time to 99.06 km/h (53.49 nodes).
