I windsurf in 30 knot winds at sea. Yeah, it's rough, but it's not hurricane level madness that rips ships apart.

That sounds like a lot of fun :)

  • Wind surfing has a surprisingly high fun/expertise ratio. You can start surfing on your own in as little as 2 hours of training. I was chasing dolphins on my second day of surfing.

    Of course, like any sport/hobby, it can take years to master but even for complete beginners it can a lot of fun.

    • Correct. You can make it easy or tough simply by choosing smaller/bigger sail and applying less/more force. So it can be very relaxing in 20 knots, especially on a lake.
