I totally agree (I'm also an instructor). I really can't see a beginner learning anything from this, I literally laughed out loud when he said to go straight into the front strap and then the back foot was way off the centre line. I guess we have to keep in mind it is several years old now, times have changed.

well, its just a board, not a boat, and the boards stay afloat on their own whether they are up or down, or any direction. if you fall over with the feet straps, and you cant get the sail in a position to pull you back up, you just pull your feet out of the straps and tip the board right side up. i've never had feet straps, though, so i'm not an expert. actually, i'm not an expert on windsurfing alltogether, but thats just the basic idea.

I windsurf.. and i actully teach it.. I wouldnt recomend this video to anyone who wants to learn windsurfing.. theres better ways to learn. and did dont explain what things are.. it also only shows you how to rig one board.. boards are differant.

I learned surfing in cien fuegos (cuba) but for me it was very easy in only 1 hour i can do all the basics skils. I think i'll buy a board for my self, but it's realy expensive. do someone know any good surf sites?
