28/11/2022 Early Windsurfer Sails Gallery

Fall 2022 / Fall 1977 – Sad anniversary, but it’s part of our Windsurfing and Wildwater history. Vaclav Jindrák & Jiří Koudela, canoe racers and windsurf pioneers, died during the GANGA ’77 expedition – the first descent attempt of Alaknanda /upper Ganga/ river🌊. My windsurf club TATRA held the Czechoslovak championships regattas for their memory in eighties. Everybody knew their names, not a full story…
This summer, Petr Jindrak has touched the sail # CZ 111 of his father for the first time during our Oldschool windsurfing cup 2022. It was a very special, sad and happy moment 😓🤗. Keep in touch and help us save memories & our heritage, friends 🤙
