Is it expensive?

[Syamil]

Windsurfing is a serious sport.

Therefore I have to be seriously honest with you.

Windsurfing is not cheap. A brand new carbon mast alone can set you back more than a thousand ringgit. A whole set of the least branded windsurfer could cost you up to RM3000. It sounds ridiculous. But is it worth it?... continue reading

i  read a few windsurfing books and these tips are in there if you read attentively. your illustration makes it clear and easy to visualize. i am new (abt 4 months)but i consciously practise this feet position when i windsurf. it helps and you quickly move off the beach. i find the easy up-haul a great aid especially when you are tired.

As far as I remember I originally posted it in the beginner's section, but somehow it ended up here. I must be a bit dizzy when I posted it I guess, or the moderator moved it here. Either way I think good stuff ( if it really is) will find its own way to eager readers.
