First woman to win Olympic gold in windsurfing

Top New Zealand windsurfer Barbara Kendall was run over by a power boat at Christmas 1991 and told she should not sail again. She refused to believe the doctors and became the first woman to win a gold medal in windsurfing at the Olympics.

Barbara has been speaking to Laura Jones.
