Not from Auburn or Lake Auburn. The video is shot on Great Pond in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. We are generally from the Portland, Biddeford, and Sanford area of Maine.

Black ice like this is rather rare in snowy Maine. This location is coastal so once or twice a winter we might get great conditions when inland snow is rain along the coast, followed by a cold spell.

do you use the same sail in the summer?

I use a maximum 4.5 meter sail in the winter, even in 15 knots which was approximate wind speed in this youtube. My big sail in summer is 6.3. Water has a lot more resistance than ice and requires larger sails.

This looks so awsome! Can you please tell me how you make these "boards"? Are they hard to make? Thanks!

I am not the maker of the boards. I just sail one. There is a phone number in Maine USA listed in the credits at end of the video. Call Mike at that number. He may or may not share his secrets.
