A book about everything

Author quickly explains short board fundamentals - water start (in detail), clew water start, etc. Then he shows common freestyle tricks - helicopter, sail 360 and others with lots of photos but little text (5-7 pictures for a move with short titles). These explanations are like that can be easily found in the Internet. Other subjects - jumps, loops, wave riding described in the same manner. This book is pretty out of date now, so modern tricks are not explained (spock, volcano ...). It is of course not a beginner book but probably it can be useful for more advanced sailors. My opinion that it is better to buy 2-3 windsurfing videos than this book.

This is a must!

Its just great...its a must for every surfer with a desire to learn more....
