The winds were light the only time I visited Arenal. With those small sails and all the stories, I can imagine just how intense and gusty winds can get there. I think the clip above was shot in the Gorge. They get winds like that at times. The following was posted on FB. As strong as the wind is, when the rigs are released they don't slingshot away like the one did in the Gorge imagery.
