And, if you miss the live action you can view it on Sunday, when the video has been uploaded to Mauiwindcam.com’s video section.

Ah, Spring.
At last the cold weather and grey clouds have departed the island and the sun is back.
And as if on cue the wind has kicked in as the men and women of the PWA settle in for their annual pre season training and the photo shoots.
This next couple of weeks we’ll be swinging the cams around a bit to capture as much of the action as possible.
Sometimes it might look like it’s all gone Pete Tong but hang in there and you’ll get to see some of the best sailors in the world doing their things on your favorite beach.
This last few days have seen some of the top racers on the planet practicing and tuning their gear for the up coming season. A season which is stacking up to be one of the best ever. Sailors include, Finian Maynard, Antoine Albeau, Jimmy Diaz and Kevin Pritchard. Wow!
So keep watching and we’ll keep you updated on all the action.
