First things first.  Back in the day, windsurfing used to be extremely difficult to learn and there was a high level of frustration among novices looking to break into this incredible water sports activity.  Boards were super narrow and tipped very easily.  After a day spent mostly in the water, rather than on top of it, most beginners despised the experience and would be hard pressed to get back out there and try again.

Today, getting into windsurfing and truly enjoying it is easier than ever.  This is due, in part, to a significant change in equipment design.  The boards are much wider and easier to navigate for the newcomer.  This allows for more time spent handling the sail and getting a feel for how the board moves in the water.  On top of that, top quality windsurfing schools are popping up around the globe and are the perfect launching pad for the person eager to jump into windsurfing headfirst.  There are a couple of things to consider before embarking on your first windsurfing lessons.
