The current issue (March) of New England Windsurfing Journal features an article by Alfred Stukuls titled “Basement Boarding”. Alfred was not content with his rate of improvement as a progressing windsurfer (I am SO with you, Alfred!) He determined that balancing himself on the board was a skill he needed to improve. So he built a micro-pool in his basement, twelve feet long, three feet wide, and one foot deep. He filled it with water, put in his Mistral Escape, hung a few safety ropes to make sure he didn’t crack his head open in a fall, and now he can practice moving about a floating board anytime he can get to the cellar!
Does it help? Alfred says in the article that a recent trip to Aruba proved his creation’s value.
Wait until he figures out how to rig a fan down there…
