Hi, here is the second part of The Best Way to Learn Windsurfing. I think windskating is one of the best way to learn and practice windsurfing.
I made this second video to help people to learn windsurfing with a windskate safely. I don't want you to hurt yourself so I tried to give the basic informations to learn properly.

I wish it would help you to learn and will bring you a lot of fun.

Cheers!

^^ Great windskate video. So much fun in light wind. I've tried normal skateboard. Longboard etc. Always not much room to step around.
So I've grabbed an old wakeskate. Will cut it down n shape to my needs. Bolt some 10" trucks on n away I sail.

Here's my Blank... 42" x 14".

Let the games begin!

Nice work on the setup.

Oh man.....it's fun but be careful--pad up. A sailor in our group was doing it this week, fell and broke his wrist. Off the water for weeks now.
