Last time I was there in December, there were very few places to rent gear, let alone decent gear, and the conditions were pretty lame. It's the rainy season, and most winds are frontal. Don'...
Was in Ft Myers for 10 days before the Midwinters, that is the closest place to rent gear. Roy at Ace Performer has some decent gear. Wiggins Pass is great when it goes off as it did last year when I ...
Selling their WS gear makes no sense to me. The two sports have a huge overlap, but are not mutually exclusive. Our kite purists who sold their WS gear may get to play more during prime season (becaus...
Here's a question for you racers:
Would knowing your gear really, really well give you an equal or perhaps larger advantage over having something new? Can a new board outline or width be so m...
Hi,
I've just decided to get some windsurfing gear. The problem is that I dont have anywhere to keep it as I dont have a garage. The only option seems to be a trailer. Could anyone suggest an...

That's why onshore wave gear is floatier and more powerful than gear designed for sideshore wave sailing.

Gee Frank, those are pretty high statistics. And, what you are leaving out is that on good Formula gear you can sail (NOT RACE) very effectively in 7-9 knots of wind. You'll be planing nearly all...
I live in Alaska. Have windsurfed some in warm climates but never here. Would welcome input as to gear (dry suits, etc) which others have used successfully when windsurfing in cold water.
