Do you think Windsurfing is making a comeback?
surf4food:
Somewhat at least? It seems I am hearing more about it these days. Perhaps a mixture of people realizing that kite boarding can be a bit dangerous and that a dropped kite is a PITA to deal with. Also maybe SUP has helped re-spark the interest?
iopsailor:
Definitely! We had almost five people out last week on a strong NE.
DavidJohn:
This may help.. I hope to try one next week.
Glowmaster:
not here on cape cod. Kiting now seems more popular and the older gang windsurfs. Haven't seen anybody learning in a loooong time.
I am one of them (old guys) but windsurf now 4-5 times a year instead of 1000 miles I did 5 years ago.
I paddle more.
surf4food:
Kiteing is definitely more popular than windsurfing here in San Diego but it seems like in the past couple years I've seen the # of windsurfers grow, and that's despite the fact we no longer have any shops that sell windsurfing gear. Plus there are no American windsurfing mags anymore.
