Many windsurfers think that weight is a big factor in speed. Good physique does help. Because when you’re heavier you can more easily keep your windsurfing equipment under control.
Height also plays a role. Your body functions as a lever while windsurfing. If you’re taller you have more leverage than shorter people.
Does this mean that you aren’t able to go as fast as bigger sailors? Absolutely not! Build is the least important factor. For example, take Karin Jaggi. As a multiple world champion speedsurfing she proved many times that you can go very fast with a length of 168 cm.

The Point-7 team is working hard on the new sails for 2011. They look gorgeous as you can see on these pictures. The sails don’t contain any logo’s yet because they are prototypes. Point-7 is not a big sail brand in the Netherlands but with these sails that might change .
For some reason most people are always looking at the top brands when buying new windsurfing equipment (including me). Maybe I should have a bit broader look at things.
