Red Bull Storm Chase - DVD (price drop)

We've seen a lot of videos out of Europe lately and they all have a couple sections of gnarly Euro conditions. You know, the cold brown water, 40 knots onshore and mast-high waves breaking 15 feet apart. If you like that then you are going to love this video. It's Euro conditions to the extreme.

Here's the concept: 11 teams of 2 sailors each in 9 different European countries wait for the biggest storm of the year to slam into Europe. When the green flag drops they all charge off to where they think the gnarliest conditions in their area will be. With cameramen in tow they head out into mind-boggling storm conditions and do their stuff. While most sane people would rather be home reading a book by the fire they are throwing giant loops and riding nearly unrideable waves. In the end the video evidence of the day dictates who charged the hardest in the heaviest conditions. If that doesn't shout "crazy Euros on Red Bull" I don't know what does.

"After several false alerts – green light was given for Oct. 31st and Nov 1st : More than 50 cameras were set, more than 100 people split up in 11 teams were ready…jetskis, helmet cams, even a helicopter – they were all ready….this was the moment when the furious Atlantic low called “Britta” snarled with up to 70kn towards the 23 windsurfers in 9 Northern European countries. They were ready to face the most extreme windsurfing show ever - the battle of the year: the Red Bull Storm Chase!"

That quote pretty much sets the tone for this unique new production. If you're tired of beautiful warm tropical Maui, then put your parka on and get this one.
