At 88, Polish Retiree Piotr Dudek is hoping to officially become the world's oldest windsurfer still relishing the battle with the wind and waves as he takes to the water and teaches children to enjoy the sport.

Dudek has been Windsurfing for 40 years and is known by the Nickname Junior, coined for him by his friends when he was around 80.

His one concession to age these days is to stay off the water when the wind gets too fierce, avoiding anything more than a moderate breeze.
