Fun jumping around on a Windsurfer
Me missus and others kept telling me I was always jumping around when sailing old-style Windsurfers. Frankly it took me to take clips to realise it. Made a fun video out of it. Here goes.
http://broadbandsports.com/node/18672As I say in the text: sometimes the jump is required or helps the move. And sometimes - lo and behold - I'm showing off.
As a side note: those who say that windsurfing as a sport is expensive, I say: pffft. Those who don't go out below 20 knots outta try this. It is much sportier to freestyle, indeed just hold on to those old rigs, than lazily plane all harnessed up at 20 knots. Plus, the freestyle thus acquired applies (sometimes) to my freeride board.
