WINDSURFING HANSTHOLM # 4

When I was "eating, sleeping and breathing" windsurfing several years back in time, Mikkel Asmussen - Alias "Jazzy" - was just a young kid, but already at that time he showed some amazing talent for this great sport. Today he is one of the leading profiles on the Danish windsurfing scene, nothing can't get rough enough for this guy, if it's blowing gales forces - he's out there on his Roberto board, with his Simmer sails (nothing else would last the way he sails!!).
Besides his excellent windsurfing skills, he is one of the owners of Ski Shop in Hellerup (check also their Facebook link) - a really great shop with a lot of "surfing soul" - simply because they all love the sport more than anything else. That's probably why his hasn't got a girlfriend yet !!!! :O)
It is always a pure pleasure to "shoot" Jazzy when he is out there on his board, because he really gives everything, a dream for a photographer. Super high back loops, double front loops - you name it and he will make it - pure magic windsurfing.
Here is a couple of pic's of "Jazzy" from that evening in Hanstholm. Maybe I should mention, they had all been sailing in the morning as well, so it was their second session in quite difficult conditions. For those who haven't tried to windsurf the Northern part of Jylland, I can assure you - "it beats you up, and takes it out of you" - said in other words don't be a "fuc....wimp" if you want to windsurf in this part of Denmark, just be prepared for some heavy action!!!!.
