Women's Windsurfing World Speed Record Attempt

Hi, my name is Jenna Gibson, and I am a World Champion windsurfer. I was named after 7-times World record holder Jenna DeRosnay. Now I want to claim a World speed record of my own.

I have 4 World titles in slalom racing and now it feels like the right time to try to go for the speed world record. I started speed sailing at the start of this year, after showing natural speed on the international circuit. I gave this new discipline a go and it would seem I'm not too shabby - Vice Speed World Champion at my first event.

With this in mind there is only one place to go. Luderitz in Namibia, where there is a custom speed canal built with one purpose: breaking speed records. Every current speed record is set there. It is the only place to go if you're serious about speed records.

The time trial competition is very expensive, getting there is even more expensive and then specialist equipment is also needed. Every penny I raise will be spent on this world record attempt.

If there are any businesses interested in this project, I have room for advertising on my sails and also very active social media accounts, please join me for the ride.
