• Freeride: Easy-going and suitable for most, combining fun with cruising ability.
• Slalom: High-speed and competitive, for those who crave the thrill of racing.
• Freestyle: A creative expression requiring specialized gear for acrobatic tricks.
• Wave: Attuned to the sea’s rhythms, designed for wave conquistadors.
• Wind Foil: A modern evolution offering a sensation of flying above the water.

The Sail: Sails drive the board, with size ranges suited to your style:

• Begginer Sails: User-friendly, cheap, made from dacron or basic monofilm (2.0 – 5.0 m²)
• Freeride Sails: User-friendly for cruising (5.0 – 8.0 m²)
• Wave Sails: Tough for waves (3.0 – 5.7 m²)
• Freestyle Sails: Agile for tricks (4.0 – 5.5 m²)
• Wind Foil Sails: Designed to work with the foil for efficiency and lift (4.0 – 9.0 m²)
• Race/slalom Sails: Aerodynamic for racing (5.5 – 9.5 m²)

The Board: The choice of board affects everything from stability to maneuverability:

• Begginer Boards: Wider, very stable (160 – 250 liters)
• Freeride Boards: Wider, stable (110 – 200 liters)
• Wave Boards: narrow & light (70 – 115 liters)
• Freestyle Boards: Wider, stable (110 – 200 liters)
• Freestyle-Wave ( freewave ) Boards: (80- 120 liters)
• Wind Foil Boards: Specially designed with reinforced structures to accommodate foils (90 – 150 liters)
• Slalom Boards: fat, short (85 – 130 liters)

The Boom: The boom allows for sail manipulation and steering:

• Aluminum Booms: Reliable for beginners (135 – 240 cm)
• Carbon Booms: High-performance for pros (150 – 250 cm)

The Mast: Masts dictate how the sail behaves, with varying diameters and carbon content:

• SDM: Steady for freeride and race sails (300 – 530 cm)
• RDM: Flexible for waves and freestyle but not only, modern mast (340 – 490 cm)

Mast flexibility is key to performance, with different bend characteristics influencing the sail’s behavior.

Mast Base and Extension Types: Crucial for the sail and board connection

• Euro-Pin Base Systems: Convenient with a secure mechanism
• US Cup Base Systems: Require precise setup
• Mast Extensions: Essential for fine-tuning (15 – 50+ cm)

Wind Foil: Glide Above the water

the Hydrofoil Lifts the board above water, minimizing drag and allowing for smoother, faster rides in lighter winds.

Windsurfing Harness and Harness Lines: The harness lets you use your whole body to control the sail, and harness lines connect it to the boom, aiding in distributing the load (20 – 34 inches).

A few important things to consider when buying windsurfing gear are your body weight, your experience level, and the conditions you’ll be riding in, as the gear can have a significant impact on your progression
