Aston is 4 now, He can now uphaul and control the sail in around 10-15 knots. He even managed to carry the sail down to the beach (about 100m).
I think it is now time for some flat water with a big board. The quote of the day was "my favourite part of the day is windsurfing".
That's awesome mate.
There is a picture of me trying to uphaul a Wally at 5 years. My first kit was a SeaSkip - It's still under the house.
Hopefully my 3 month old son will enjoy it as much as I have.
Great pics.
Dan.
Great photos! Cute kid!
My grandson is almost 3 and he loves watching windsurfing with me on YouTube! But his mother threatened me when I said I was going to put him on a board with me next summer.
I have this plan to pick up all the grandkids during school holidays and take them off to learn to surf ,sail,camp,burp,fart and swear, then drop em home after a few weeks, smelly ,headlicey and cheeky.
i reckon thats the basic reason for being a grandad
Great shots bluedog - I will be introducing my kids to sailing this summer in the same way -
landy - my kids came back from my dads last for the day and told me they had so much fun - when i asked what was the highlight they told me it was poppy stirring up their ice cream in a bowl until it melted - the same thing i used to do only i was told "just eat your food, dont play with it"
