Why is this not a professional sport on television?
If the Tv rights were managed, this type of extreame sport sailing could be a professional league with sailors, teams and competitions being sponsored by luxury brands.
I have also always wondered why land board sailing and Ice boating /Ice board sail racing has not yet followed the model of a professional racing sports.
I am manifesting sports marketing professionals to be involved in the development of in new windsports leagues with extreame sports athletes competing on water, land and Ice creating new opportunities for professional sports.
The Moth Worlds is officially underway, and it’s full-speed foiling ahead. With high winds pushing sailors and their gear to the limit, the fleet is delivering the kind of action-packed racing that makes the Moth Class legendary.
Day 1 tested the fleet with conditions right at the limit—think edge-of-your-seat mark roundings and sailors battling gusts up to 26 knots. After one race apiece on the two courses, two names are tied at the top: local legends Mattias Coutts and Jacob Pye, both just 19 and putting their backyard knowledge to good use.
Who do you think has what it takes to master the breeze and bring home the title?
