Windsurfing Craze Grows in Popularity Windsurfing has really caught on within the last few years with more and more people discovering how fun and easy it can be. One windsurfing student student at the Darlington Provincial Park is pictured here trying to grab a hold of his falling mast. It's hard to remember everything the first time you actually set sail! by Catherine Denny Talk is cheap. Anyone could rhyme off the basics of windsurfing while standing standing on solid ground, but it takes real talent to actually set those techniques into motion. Now that summer is drawing to a close, windsurfing inquisitors are taking advantage of what little time they have left to catch some waves. Afterall, you can't return from your holidays without at least once trying the newest in leisure sports; how could you face your neighbours? Special sailing schools are really cashing in on the new trend in water fun this year through their two-day,' six hour courses. In fact taking windsurfing lessons appears to be the "in" thing to do this summer. summer. It doesn't matter whether or not you own a board and sail, or even whether you know what one looks like, you'll learn soon enough. The course that was offered offered at Darlington Provincial Provincial Park last week by Mobile Board Sailing in Toronto, Toronto, attracted over 30 people from the Bowman- ville-Oshawa area. Instruction was given over a two day period which included two three-hour sessions on how to rig the sale, basic balance techniques, methods of self rescue, and other safety tips. The first few hours of the lesson restrict the would-be surfers to the land where they receive instruction on the apparatus, appropriate surfing clothing, and preparations. preparations.

This is where the trial and error method comes in, resulting resulting in a lot of backward flips into the lake, some excellent excellent belly flops, and just sometimes, (not too often at first) a balanced surfer. Balancing practice should be carried out in thigh deep water if possible, possible, the advantage being that after a fall not too much energy is required to climb back on to the board again. But caution should be made against floating into shallow shallow water which might damage damage the daggerboard. Surfers should mount the board from the windward side striving to get as near the middle of the board as possible, roughly between the daggerboard case and the mast. The next mission is to take hold of the mast rope and slowly pull it out of the water, balancing it on the board.

Falling Falling is just part of the learning learning process dust keep telling telling yourself that). If balance balance is lost, jump in on the opposite side to the sail. Climb on to the board again and start over. It is also a good idea to avoid waving to friends or relatives that might be watching from the shore until you have mastered the sport. It may result in falling, falling, and could cause serious serious damage, to your ego. When losing your balance, balance, it's not necessary to let go of the rig completely. Only when you need to, let the mast rope slide through your hands a little. When you have retained your balance, balance, you can raise the rig up again. Before finally sailing, you should learn how to turn the board beneath the rig. This is done by turning the board round the mast with your feet. When doing this the rig should be inclined both back and sideways against the direction of the turn, and against the v.'ind. To turn left, pull the rig back and to the right with your right hand, the opposite opposite is required to turn right. After you have learned the basics you can start sailing. sailing.

There isn't really one important important point that needs to be stressed in windsurfing other than the fact that you must be patient and avoid making sudden moves. Naturally you could learn to windsurf by the trial and error method yourself. But this is slower and often discouraging discouraging without guidance from an instructor. Furthermore, beginner's errors may creep in, and correction is more difficult than learning something fresh. Most of all,, it is more enjoyable enjoyable to practice in a group or with at least one other person then it is by yourself, and it is easier to learn from mutual observation observation and correction. Windsurfers could run you anywhere from $600 to $3,500 for an all out racing, machine. The middle ground for a good surfer is usually around $1000. Before you run out and buy a rig, it's a good idea to try the sport first. Lessons only cost $35 and will certainly certainly help you decide whether or not you're cut out to be a windsurfer.
