Antoine Albeau started to go over 51 knots on Monday during the LUDERITZ SPEED CHALLENGE 2015 event and was joined by Patrik Diethelm (ITA). At about that time, around 1.15pm, Karin Jaggi (29 World titles) pushed hard and broke the Female World Record in Windsurfing with 46.31 kts ! (Previously held by Zara Davis (UK) at the 2012 Luderitz Speed Challenge with 45.83 kts) and, just 15 minutes later, Antoine Albeau broke his world record, for the first time, achieving 52.41 kts !
Then he never stopped - and broke it 5 times : 52.50 kts > 52.76 kts > 53.1 knots and then the actual World Record which now stands at a highly impressive 53.27 kts.
