After a ballad on his keel, after a dive from the top of the mast, Alex Thomson has just added another feat to his list of acrobatics. Attached by a rope at the masthead, he just took off at 85 m with a kite surf.
In his video, he announces that he combines his 2 passions, kite and sailing. The video was shot in Portugal in 25 knots of wind. Still dressed in a black suit from his sponsor Hugo Boss, the skipper sets off behind his Imoca, recovers the line fixed at the masthead and takes off...
The images are spectacular and do not need description. We just wonder what atypical skipper will be able to invent now?
