Windsurfing Secrets
Popis knihy:
Myths Perhaps the most common myth concerning windsurfing gear has to do with the complexity of the equipment—that windsurfing is a technical sport, only suited for engineers and likeminded folk. This is not true. Windsurfers come from all walks of life. They can be teachers, astronauts, police officers, baseball players, bank clerks, etc., etc. No special knowledge or cleverness is needed. Getting the hang or “feel” of windsurfing is comparable to learning how to ski or snowboard. Which leads us to another myth: Windsurfing is a sport requiring incredible balance or agility, an activity for gymnasts or acrobats, but not normal individuals. The latter is tied to the myth that windsurfing requires great arm strength. Windsurfers can be 95-pound girls or 200-pound men. There is a size of equipment appropriate for each individual, and if chosen properly, windsurfing will not be an undue strain or test of strength. In fact, if you’re using too much force in windsurfing, struggling too much, it’s a good sign that your technique is wrong. Windsurfing has a lot more to do with “feel” and finesse, the proper stance and sail angle, than it does with brute strength. Finally, there’s the myth that windsurfing is terribly expensive and something “other” people do, but not me. This is also a myth!Hodnocení uživatelů:
