Wind Legends
|
"This is the history of windsurfing as we know it. These are the legends of wind. Welcome to our journey through the history of windsurfing, one of the most fascinating sports ever created. Told by the legends that rode the wind and waters of yesterday, our tale comes in four waves. Before each segment we will introduce the legends we think had the biggest impact on our sport. The first wave follows the rise of invention through the sunset of the windsurfer one design era. Wave two focuses on the sports revolution of funboard design and the journey into the surf. Our third wave takes the sport through a technological evolution where equipment becomes lighter and maneuvers go off the chart. We end our story with the Fourth Wave, highlighting the modern wind warriors and youth movement of today." (Jonathan Weston)
