Hi all, as the subject says...
I bought my gear some month ago and I already made progress but now I am getting so frustrated. Some things just don't work. Many things I don't understand. And Youtube doesn't help. So can anybody recommend a good place to take lessons in or around Perth? Thanks! Joe

Windforce Nedlands or 2nd Wind Melville.........

2nd wind sailboards.

I asked at 2nd Wind but they don't give 'advanced' lessons at the moment :-(

Laure Treboux, Lauretreboux.com


just send her an email, she's been doing a fair bit of it in the perth area i think.

What stage were you at??
Where do you usually sail Joe?

My stage: in light winds I feel pretty comfortable, steering works, sometimes even tacking and gybing. With stronger wind I sometimes manage to plane but its not really controlled. Tacking and gybing no way as soons as wind gets stronger. And I don't see any way that I learn it by myself so I think I need professional help. Usually I sail at Lucky Bay. Sometimes at Pelican point.

Hey Quim, Im around the same stage. I wrote Laure and it seems quite an attractive coaching service.

You sound like you are doing fine. Planing feels a bit out of control if you are not in the hraness and footstraps.
