1.0 out of 5 stars This book is useless., October 1, 1998

A. Schoenbacher (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Learn to Windsurf (Paperback)

I am a beginner and fortunately have taken a few lessons before I got this book. If I hadn't taken lessons, even with this book I would be clueless. It talks alot about rules for racing, and all the different kinds of racing, but does not talk about learning to windsurf very much. This book should be called "Sailboard Racing and a Little Other Info". IF you are a beginner look elsewhere for beginning sailing info.

2.0 out of 5 stars Little help here, September 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Learn to Windsurf (Paperback)

Someone sold me a used sailboard for use on Midwestern lakes; I was clueless how to use it. Unfortunately this book did not provide much help. It taught me the parts, and gave some instruction on how to put them together. It was of little help on how to actually do it, devoting about 3 pages to this topic.
