Never seen a foil race video before. They do well not to tangle!

Speed and angles soooo impressive - no wake, just a vapor trail! And the top three guys so close! Awesome racing.

Any stats on VMG and outright speeds for the top racers?

If you go to the event webpage they have links to the GPS tracking of the gold fleet for final days

I've always wondered how is it in races like this that there are (seemingly) very few collisions of kites. Have there been many incidents of people being 'run over' after a wipeout in kite racing? I would imagine that the consequence of being run over by a foil or race board with large fins would be fairly severe...
