  • 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.
