Not many people know about George Grennough's windsurfing achievements. We are going to talk about it in our next magazine issue. This rig is all self-built, tweaked and DIFFERENT to anything you have seen before. None of it was 'off the shelf', all 100% custom built. It was FAST! He went through half a dozen rigs and board designs until he had to quit, because his knee gave up. The camera was mounted himself and a remote shutter release cable on the boom, with a  fisheye lens...Film, circa 1980s -when the surf just got too crowded. He shot a bunch of photos with the camera mounted on top of the mast too, it’s a really interesting perspective. #originalgopro #georgegreenough #fisheyelens #windsurfinginnovations #innovator #inventor #bestselfieever (check our new website http://hodaddy.com.au)
