    Details Eric posted with the video

    Tail wind of 12 mph that day in Rocky Point Mexico ( AZ's beach )..with the wind top speed was 65mph ( top while filming gps was 63mph )...Into the wind speed was 28mph... I also filmed gps at 98 kilometers per hour for those skeptics that would think the 63mph was kph....Downwind I could maintain an easy 55mph...I pulled some barrell rolls, wing tip drags etc w/ the wing......
