Windsurfing
has evolved over the past decade into a high octane
adrenaline sport, but gone are the days where
manoeuvring heavy sails and balancing on narrow
long boards were the norm. At Ocean Sports we
use only the latest equipment and guarantee our
students will be up and sailing within an hour!
Jim Collis, Windsurf magazine tester, RYA Fastfwd
Trainer and all round super star will be joining
us at Ocean Sports to run a number of two day
clinics. Jim's clinics will offer a range of wind
surfing techniques including gybing, freestyle
for beginners and advanced, bump and jump and
looping! Jim will also be available to offer one
to one tuition on a limited number of dates.
