Windsurf 1980s Blowing Out Robby Naish Karl Messmer - Pan Am Cup and North Shore

Classic VHS 1980's windsurf video - First part is the Pan Am Cup which was the premier windsurf event of its time. Second Part is Robby Naish wave jumping at Diamond head with Karl Messmer on early prototypes of Mistral take off. Last Part is taken at the North Shore with Robby on proto Mistral Take off. Other Sailors are Cort Larned i think (blue and yellow sail), Ken Winner (all yellow sail and board) and Malte Simmer on first fat head sails with yellow swallow tail board.
I truely loved this video and watched it religiously, just loved the music by Michel Stelio. Many Thanks to Jean-Luc Breitenstein for his wonderful creation to capture these great days. Thanks to Robby for showing us how to sail!
If you like the Music as much as i do the tracks are as follows:
Track 1 is "Early Morning" by Michel Stelio and i think is sung by Tina Provenzano.
Track 2 is "Hot Blood" by Michel Stelio and sung by Jan Loseth and Tina Provenzano.
Thanks to youtube user Jacalleja for help with Music Investigation.

Thanks JLB... This video changed everything for me! I watched it so much when i was young. Yes lots of good memories.Loved the Music so much as well! Me and my friend jacalleja have been searching for the Music everywhere. Finally 30 years later we have found the second Music track in France called "Hot Blood" by Jan Loseth and Tina Provenzano. I have bought the record second hand - its great!

Again a very big Thank you for capturing great moments!

I shoot this film in 1981 which is one of my first films.

I have not seen this film for at least 20 years… Emotion and nostalgia… For sure !

Thanks for your annotations.
