Very cool video! Hobie should use it as marketing media.

The new motto could be,

"The Hobie Way of Life, Hell Yeah!"

iOS 7.1.... On FB I get similar message " the owner of this content has not made it available to mobile devices, add to playlist and watch later on a PC "
Wonder if it's one of those " We are forcing you to upgrade even if everything else is working fine )

The Wave does have a simple 2/1 downhaul.

I haven't had my Wave out in winds that high yet but it's on my to-do list now!

Nice video, thanks for posting. Hobie did a nice job of building a tough cat. There are 5 or 6 Waves at my sailing club, but mostly they sit on their trailers disintegrating in the sun.
