Good Job Man! I know very little about India but one thing I know is actually a not very fun fact: Most Indians do not know how to swim, right? well, its not your case, given the fact you have no wetsuit nor a life vest makes you pretty brave!! enjoy the freedom!!! cheers and congrats on the Video

Thanks guys...I know the song was a bit cheesy but I thought it suitable and overused in WS videos.

I'm hoping to get capture more places in India and also use the go pro to help analysing my jibes and jumps.

The other thing that limits the number of windsurfers in India: parents relentless disapproval of any activity that’s fun, and hounding that you should studying or furthering your career.

“Why are you out goofing off on your wind-board???? You should be studying to be a DOCTOR!!!”

Just 50 out of 1 billion. wow. How about sailing in general? Not so popular?

In the 80's I read an article about a guy (westerner) who windsurfed down the Ganges River on a long board. Think expedition windsurfing.
