Quote:"With all the sports and pass times available to do these days the choice as to what sport to partake in is a pretty confusing one. National Windsurfing Week will give windsurfing a voice. It’s the true voice of the sport as well as it’s organised by the very people that do the sport for fun - organised by windsurfers for windsurfers. There’s no corporate sponsorship to muddy the message - It’s windsurfing for windsurfings sake - the best sport in the world "John Hibbard - 2007 UK National Wavesailing Champion

The camaraderie and shared learning’s of the ‘loop club’ group also provide an excellent environment and much needed motivation and focus as we are all in it together. Jem will get you: * Understanding the workings and theory of the forward loop * Jumping better and with your tail up – very important * Working on the slower speed wymaroo training drill * Attempting your first loops or even improving the loops you already do and all in a serene and less painful manner then you would just working it out for yourself * Pulling that trigger and knowing what to do to make them better * Improving in your basic all-round sailing and self coaching * Enjoying the perfect jump and loop training ground of West Wittering AKA ‘stunt ramp central’ Who: Competent strong wind sailors used to open seas and small boards with some courage and desire.
