There are quite a few great gift ideas for
the occasional and regular windsurfer.
- Think of caps for wind and sun protection,
lycra shirts to prevent skin abrasion and
sunburns on arms and shoulders. Also goggles
or sunglasses can complete the look.
- For the technically inclined windsurfer,
a wind meter can help determine whether it
is time to rig, or what size sail to rig.
Another interesting gadget is the portable
GPS. Some units are waterproof, and nothing
gets the speed-loving windsurfer happier
than boasting about his or her maximum speed
on that last run.
- For advanced windsurfers that venture in
very windy conditions, a helmet may be a
good addition.
- Gloves can be a life saver for the tender
skin of the occasional windsurfer.
Finally, windsurfing stores carry a variety
of DVDs and videos, and if you do not have
a local shop, a number of retailers have
web sites that offer plenty to chose from. |
