There is cold and then there is BLOODY COLD !!
In French we say froid et FRAITE/frête !!
If these surfers can do it, why is it NOT more popular amongst North American windsurfers ?

In Montreal I only know of local legend Yvente...
Here is a photo from Baie des Brises in 2016 - from Yvente/quebecwind:
The BIG problem is the sail(s). When it gets cold, the sails get full of ice and the mast freezes together. I have gone in the cold up at the chalet and the only saving grace was being able to bring the sails directly into the cottage. Some people say one just needs some warm water to pour over items that are frozen ... Sorry, even I cannot get into this and I am considered a polar bear...
and then there was this video from December 2015 :-)
apparently this one is from some movie ?? "Ayahuasca" ??
well, I probably could make it out in that weather :-)
Well, it does look like some cold weather videos are showing up 😊
