hey all. just wondering if windsurfing is anygood. i want to start but all my friends think its gay, and for old men. can you get much air off a wave or sumpthing (speling???). and how to you get in to it. do you need a leson or wat.
thanks felas.
Sh!t easy - no lessons needed just get yourself a good learnes kit
80litre board - wave is best (nice and narrow don't want to start too big)
9.0m sail with at least 4cams (nothing worse than having a too small a sail when your starting off) and make sure its at least 25knts or beginners like you will never get going.
Hint wear your boardies over your wetsuit - that will give you heaps of beach cred.
else you'll just look gay like your mates reckon.
I think windsurfing might be too difficult for you. Stick to extreme masturbation and kiting and you'll be fine.

oh i dont know. nah def boardies and shirt over wettie, then people thinks your hell tuff not needing a wettie.
Decrep, your answer should have been:
"Yes it is gay and for old men". Less keystrokes.
All: Bit rough ?. Not the tackful of posts, but it was somebody asking for some advice and he probably doesn't know the etiquette of this forum (like I didn't when I first posted). I PM'ed him. He seems pretty keen.
mmmmmmmm, come to think of it, your right !!!!! You are definately wise beyond your years.(how could I have been so blind). Okay, bye now......
surfing boy, you need to need to speak to my buddy 'king of the point' dude maybe he can help you
how could you forget wet willy, windwarning, all your posts seem to be about him as well!!
Obviously; the poster is stirring sh1t.
Yea windsurfing is better....who cares apart from us????????
But It cracks me up with the common argument, who friggin cares about windsurfing vs kitesurfing, the fella just asked a honest novice question and you all wank on?
Why bother replying all you do is look like tossers to anyone with half a brain, that may have just stumbled onto the site with an honest question......
Get over yourselves and answer the mans question, or better yet type nothing!
And as for "Windsurfing is a longer learning curve than kiting" quote by decrepid where do you base your conclusions? they both have there various differences one is not easier or harder than the other, and yea I've done both so bow out on the BS...........
p.s for the wankers ....no spelling mistakes
> Windsurfing is a longer learning curve than kiting
That's BS. We've seen windsurfers being highly proficient into the first year, esp. with modern equipment. And there are kiters into their 3-4th year and still fighting the lines in rather lame wind and no waves (actually most of them it seems).
And I've seen windsurfers with all sort of gear on a trailer barely ploughing along after 10 years, but still having a great time and not getting in other people's way.
Again, the learning curve argument is bs.
Windsurfing is much like stand-up paddle boarding......ITS HORRIBLE
and as for this comment
>Actually, "dude", I HAVE seen windsurfers go (meaning jump) bigger than kiters, not to mention going faster and getting more radical, and, furthermore, windsurfers can go out in INSANE winds which would kill most kiters!
Was you high at the time you saw this event happen???
Give kiting a go you will be quite surprised
