Windsurfing
Book Description
If you’d like to experience the thrills—but avoid the spills—of
windsurfing, this is the book that will prepare you to set sail!
Ken Winner, former world-champion windsurfer, shares the
knowledge he has gained in two decades of windsurfing competition.
You’ll learn
• how to choose the right equipment,
• fundamental skills for windsurfing correctly,
• exercises to strengthen and stretch muscles and prevent injury,
and
• rules to follow while you’re on the water.
The book also includes information on racing, playing windsurfing
games, and performing freestyle tricks. And even experienced
windsurfers will appreciate the descriptions of some of the world’s
best places to windsurf, from the Caribbean to Hawaii and Australia.
Like all the books in the Outdoor Pursuits Series, Windsurfing
emphasizes safety, environmental responsibility, and—most of all—the
fun of outdoor activity!
