Uphaul and Go

Son Nico uphauling the 8.4 sq.m. sail on his Mistral Prodigy windsurfer. The board is large and stable and works well in a wide range of wind speeds.

Is 2006 the year you are going to learn to windsurf? Visit the Island Sports website for info on lessons and gear. Island Sports has been in the Newport area since 1974.

Litoralis,

Yeah, the sail is pretty big -- good for average conditions, but some of our friends have sails larger than 11 square meters for light air.

Have you tried windsurfing?
