In keeping with the Windwise ethos of breaking
the sport down into the most important
transferable and trainable skills, Simon Bornhoft
illustrates the importance of a ‘Warrior’ stance
which is dynamic action that is instrumental in
pretty much every windsurfing turn, transition or
aspirational move - be it basic tack, frustrating
gybe, first time wave ride, turning a ‘350’ into a
360, venturing into the waves or so many spiny
freestyle moves. Regardless of your level and
especially if you struggle with shorter board tacks,
gybing or have any aspiration to do anything other
than blast up and down - you need to understand
the importance of the ‘Warrior’.
Who’s this feature for?
Beginner-Improvers:
Uphauling, tacking and your very first gybes!
Improver-Intermediate:
Fast tacking, making and planing out of gybes,
plus turning on flat water or waves.
Intermediate-Advanced:
Wave sailing, Up/Downwind 360s, Helis and the
majority of Freestyle.
