Kitesurfing is a challenging sport. Kai Lenny makes it look easy - tackling a 56 mile journey across Lake Michigan. Watch him make a second attempt at the enormous challenge.

From RedBull:

"After a failed first attempt 2 years ago, watersport master Kai Lenny attempts to windsurf 56 miles across Lake Michigan. Better equipment, a better forecast, and a different location set the stage for his second attempt, and it all falls onto Kai to power through hours of constant focus and bitter cold to pull it off. After 2 hours and 50 minutes of windsurfing through endless choppy waves, Kai emerges triumphant on the other side of the lake."
