Windsurfing Waterstart Class
In this class you'll learn how you can lie back and let the wind pull you out of the water. The waterstart is the gateway to high-wind sailing and the key to sailing a shortboard. Because of Hawaii's reliable tradewinds, Maui is the best place to learn the waterstart.
In these two-hour lessons, we can teach you more than you would learn in weeks of trying to teach yourself at home. You'll learn how to position the board after a wipeout. You'll also be taught how to steer and control the board from the waterstart position and how to fly the sail and waterstart in strong winds.
You'll first be shown these techniques on the beach and then get into the water, where you'll learn to keep control and steer the board. After this, "popping up" onto the board is easy, and you will be able to do it time and time again; you will own the waterstart. |
This class can teach practically anybody how to waterstart. However, it is recommended that you have some experience in moderate to strong winds. Being able to beach-start before you come is helpful but not essential. Knowledge of harness and footstraps is not required, either.
Having the right size board and sail is essential to a successful water-starting session. Even if you have your own board, you might want to use something a little different during the class to increase your learning curve. Discuss your equipment requirements with your instructor before class. Generally, you will need a sail half a square meter larger than the one you would sail with. |
