Windsurfing action shots

[foxbat]

I was at a lake up in my home county of Yorkshire yesterday where lots of local windsurfers were doing their thing. The 1DMK2 with the 400mm f/5.6L attached seemed to get their attention and pretty soon the stunts were coming thick and fast!

A board that stands out in the crowd. He landed this one successfully.

The moment of landing. Making it look easy...

Then straight into a turn.

I love the first one. Everything about it is just great. Also, on the last one, i love how you can see the muscles in his arm as he strains against the wind. Great shots!
