It is the most difficult windsurfing maneuver of all time, and only a few sailors will be able to complete it.
Michael George is not your average professional windsurfer - he's just another data science architect with a nine-to-six job. But that doesn't mean he can't dream high.
That is why Mike decided to blend his two hobbies: windsurfing and speedcubing, i.e., solving Rubik's Cube fast.
You ask: what does one thing have to do with the other? Easy: start planing on your windsurfer, and try to solve the Rubik's Cube with one hand.
"I honestly can't remember how the idea came to me, but I've been meaning to give it a go for almost a year," George told SurferToday.
"I've just been waiting for the right day - sunny, windy, flat water, and plenty of space!"
"I've seen a video of Feliks Zemdegs solving a cube while skiing, and I've also seen it solved while cycling and skateboarding."
"I thought it would be pretty cool to do it planing on a windsurfer and maybe be the first person to attempt such a crazy challenge!"
"So I rigged up, switched on the GoPro, and set sail with a cube hoping to capture something good on video."
Only 32 Seconds
Mike completed the mathematical challenge in 32 seconds and ended in COLL (Corners and Orientation of the Last Layer).
"I thought I might be able to catch some faster solves - closer to 20 seconds - but I didn't realize how much harder the cube would be when windsurfing," the British windsurfer added.
"I guess it still turned out alright, and I've been stunned by the level of interest. This has given me another crazy idea, but I'll keep it to myself for now."
How do you name the new windsurfing trick? Cubing planing one-handed? It's not easy to baptize this one.
The truth is that Michael George opened a new chapter in freestyle windsurfing and added the complexity the sport needed.
Rubik's Cube was invented in 1974 by the professor of architecture and sculptor Erno Rubik.
Back in the day, he didn't imagine that it would become the world's best-selling toy.
The Hungarian developed a 3D combination puzzle featuring 26 colored miniature cubes and 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 possible configurations.
The fastest speedcuber of all time is Feliks Zemdegs. He solved Rubik's Cube in 4.22 seconds.
