Is that you or are you just sharing? I'm curious about the training lead up, support boat specs/loadout/gas plan, etc. I want to do a similarly long distance race some day and would like to copy someone else's already successful plan to the maximal degree possible.

Pretty sure Hugh is just sharing based on the fact that this guy is a ozone sponsored racer in NZ and Hugh is a Naish rider in Illinois

Good call, Plummet! Just wish I could foil like that, only getting started on a Slingshot Hoverglide bolted to a big old surfboard so I can do touchdown gybes, having tired of falling and restarting to change direction!
