Your opportunity to ask the pro’s how it’s done
By snailman @ 11:49 AM :: 93 Views :: 0 Comments :: Windsurfing articles
Ever wanted to ask one of the PWA stars how they pull off certain moves, sail so fast, or perform manoeuvres with such ease? Well now’s your chance. Over the forthcoming months we’ll be hitting up the men and women of the PWA for hints, tips, advice and information on everything windsurfing.

How do you crank a top turn Mr.Baker?
 

This is where you come in. PWA would like readers to email in their requests, so we can take it to the top and find out how it’s done from the very best windsurfers in the world. Questions can be on anything from beginner technique to expert, wave to slalom and everything in between.

Send your requests to andy@pwaworldtour.com with the subject titled ‘INSIDE LINE’. Include your question and who you’d like to answer it. The most popular questions will be posed to the pros and posted in the PWA news feed on pwaworldtour.com

Mozambique – soul sailing 2007

So here we go again – time for soul sailing 2007. After being skunked by the ‘Baan last year, we decided to make a change in venue. Mozambique it would be – our destination was Ponte Torres tented camp on the Santa Maria Peninsula just to the south of Inhaca Island 50 km due east of Maputo. Purpose of the trip – sail our butts off and flatten a case of Leffes. According to those in the know, October is slap bang in the middle of the Mozambique coastal windy season. Only three of the 2006 soul sailors made this trip – the rest came up with a host of crappy excuses and are no longer considered “soul”. We were joined by Gabi’s bud, Andre, who would take us to Ponte Torres on his large twin engined fishing boat, and some fishing fellows and their women folk.

Ja nee. The moment of truth approaches – I write this in anticipation of the 2006 soul sailing trip to Langebaan scheduled for the 1st week of November. Just to kick our enthusiasm off, the 2005 soul sailors received greetings from Matt Pritchard (“say Hi to the JHB guys”) via Anthony – ah, fame at last for the puddle sailors.
