BEGINNER WINDSURFING QUICK-START GUIDE


THE STABILITY FOUNDATION 
Volume (The Float): Look for boards with 160 to 266 liters. Every liter provides 1.8 to 2.0 lbs of positive flotation, which is vital for staying upright at low speeds. Most adults succeed best on boards between 180 and 235 liters that are at least 30 inches wide.

 

YOUR CUSTOM SAIL SIZING
Sail size should be chosen based on your weight and the wind strength. As requested, the 160-180 lbs male range has been adjusted:
• 160 – 180 lbs Male: 5.0 – 6.0 meter sail. 
• 130 – 150 lbs Female: 4.0 – 4.5 meter sail.

 

While our packages offer the best value for new sailors, you can also purchase a standalone windsurf board if you already have a rig or are looking for a specific level of performance.
