As you might guess from the name, windsurfing is mainly about wind - besides water, which is the other important element. Wind is where we get the drive from. Wind is our gas, but not harmful to the environment, and what is more important, totally free of charge.

 

The wind has almost as much energy, though. We can use it, but we should not underestimate it. Wind is the elixir of life for every windsurfer. The art of windsurfing is to know the wind, to interpret it, to control it, to play with it and to use it for your own purpose, without underestimating it. Also for beginners it is crucial to know and understand the most important aspects about wind.
