It's finally been confirmed that UK rider Steve Thorp's times from the 3rd of January at West Kirby have been cleared as a world record by gpsspeedsurfing.com.
This means that Steve Thorp aka the Thorpedo is now the fastest man in the world. If you follow his blog you would have already noticed that he modestly quotes " my second GPS was fine, and still gave me the fastest '2 second max' time ever on GPS of 50.48 knots! Obviously I’m beyond chuffed with that’.
We all know only too well that this is not the goal for Thorp and he will continue scouring the nation for the perfect forecast in both waves and speed. So don’t expect it to stop here and was that 54knots he had recorded really just a brief defect in the satellite signal…
