What at the deal on the Squamish spit and the rescue seadoo. You do. An annual fee and your good to go?
I'd like to get back into windsurfing but I'm an intermediate at best (no waterstart)
Kitesurfing is a lot more versatile than windsurfing. A single 10m kite will see you on the water almost any time of the year (wind range of 14-35 knots)..a windsurfer needs 4-5 sails for that same range?
