Have you watched any instructional windsurfing videos? Having windsurfing lessons beyond the basics don't really seem to be the Aussie way of doing it.

I'll make a video of me waterstarting with my GoPro. It should show you something and if I can do it, anyone should be able to. Just ignore the swearing

Here is a vid of me waterstarting.



Hope it helps. Basically to learn to waterstart you need to know how to beachstart. Beachstart in deeper and deeper water.

I remember my first waterstart. It was almost an accident where I fell in the water, holding onto the boom and the sail lifted me back on the board.

When are we going to see your face Moby? You can't be that ugly!

I could be.

Seeing my face? It may happen but make sure your computer has virus protection first.

Good luck with the lessons Gracie. If you are ever down in Kyeemagh, especially at the new carpark and you see a funny looking white Mitsubishi Delica van with a strange fellow hanging around, say g'day.

My mum warned me about people like you (I've seen the photo!)

Yeah you have to keep an eye on blokes driving vans with tinted windows. They are often not up to anything good.
