How to repair a windsurfing sail with x-ply or monofilm with Gorilla Tape
Merci pour cette bonne démonstration. Je comprends mieux l'interaction voile/mat, véritable science de sorcier pour un néophyte comme moi 😅
Merci ! Pour simplifier, la courbure du mât va déplacer le creux de part et d'autre du wish. Parfois plus bas, parfois plus haut. Il faut essayer et ajuster.
Thank you for making these videos. Since all the surf/windsurf shops closed up here after the internet boom, there’s no one giving lessons out on our beaches anymore. Magazines all dead & gone too… All that knowledge could disappear.
It's sad to see all the shops and centers disappear, they are still doing well in some windy areas! Anything let me know, I'm happy to help where I can 😁
Letting the weight get over the center of the board is really key and so often overlooked
Very useful. Thank you. However traffic noise makes sound quality rather poor👍
Absolutely, to make matters worse a water pump was running through a cleaning cycle while recording, haha! I did filter the sound the best I could. Wish I had more time for this channel. Anyway, subtitles seem ok :) ! Thanks for the feedback and happy sailing, any questions let me know!
Fantastic play!
Thanks! Happy to get some of my shots back, looking forward to playing some more. I created a new channel to focus on tennis, check it out: www.youtube.com/@ManusTennis Let me know if you would like to see some things in particular. Happy hitting!
Very Nice!
Thank you. Looking forward to playing with more players. I created a new channel so I can focus on tennis, check it out: www.youtube.com/@ManusTennis would you like to see something in particular?
what kind of tape is that? thanks
go to my site: windsurfing.lepicture.com/tips-and-tricks/
That was a fast serve on an amateur level indeed, but I would put it at more like 150kmh.
Thank you for your comment. How did you determine the speed? I tried this tool (donthireddy.us/tennis/speed.html) feeding in frame rate, number of frames and approximate distance. It seems to work remarkably well.

Id love to see a new version including some newer straps! Great work!
Thank you. I have newer MFC on a Goya and they are really good, Premium starboard straps are excellent. Fanatic are still about the same I think. Let me know if you want to check one in particular. Dakine primos always indentical.
@@manuwindsurfing Wondering, out of the box and between the ones you just mentioned (cause I happen to be in the dilema for Dakine, Fanatic or MFC), how would you rank them? Best to not best heheh This is for wave riding BTW
@@CristianBurr Easy! The Dakine primos inner strap doesn't have the bevel that MFC and Fanatic have. So it can feel sharper especially once the neoprene starts wearing out. The Fanatic is soft, it rotates easily and stretches, the MFC is a touch more firm with a similar design. Fanatic is lighter. The Primo is a touch wider (front to back) than the other two. Fanatic tend to fall apart quite quick, the MFC would be next and then Primo lasting the longerst. Also the MFC sits high, meaning that the bottom edges can expose the strap part where the screws go and create blisters. I put a piece of inner tube around the base where I lean my foot against. The taller the straps, the more flex the Fanatic will have, followed by MFC and then Primo I believe being the stiffest.
Good video!
continue les vidéos elles apportent un réel intérêts pour les pratiquants qui te soutiennent et les nouveaux également !
Merci beaucoup.

instructif bravo !
Merci !
Respect small board 🤙
thanks for this video, I learned the secret: remove the straps and leave the screws inserted, you can't go wrong!😀
Gotta make sure screws and boards don't get mixed up :D ! Believe it or not this board still "works"
Going to try Tip 2 to get my tack working... thanks!

Epic!
Thanks for sharing! What's the size of the thread you used? Is it waxed?
My pleasure! Links are on my website, on this page near the bottom: windsurfing.lepicture.com/tips-and-tricks/ It's V92 polyester thread. All repairs I made are still perfect, love it!
11. To release the rig, pull the sail towards the wind, don't try to just push it up.
In place of screwdriver bits, I had on hand incrementally sized cordage, from string up to 3mm dyneema, using them like floss. Being soft, they will not damage the mast. I achieved 3mm of separation and that was enough I could twist the sections apart with the help of a friend. I wouldn't have thought of this technique if I hadn't seen this video. Thanks @frenchsalsa!
pretty awesome! I'm glad you got it apart 💪 !
An excellent treatment, Manu - all the key points are there to help improvers move away from "...you must never use both feet at the same time..." I am glad that you showed light wind and strong wind, the helicopter technique, your use of the floor...well done.
Thank you, means a lot to me!
Super intéressant Manu ! Je confirme que les straps du matos de location sur les spots sont très , trop serrés. Et je trouve que cela génère de la fébrilité en navigation car en cas de chute ... un pied coincé peut être vraiment douloureux pour la cheville. Merci !
Merci pour cette intéressante vidéo. Il ne reste qu'à mettre en pratique.
That's great, with lots of usefull info!! Thanks
thank you much!
Super tuto, vraiment bien fait !! j'y ait trouvé plein de réponses. Merci a toi 🙏🏽🙏🏽😊 je m'abonne
Merci, un commentaire qui me va droit au cœur !
Merci très instructif !
merci pour ton commentaire !
were is this ?
wheatland reservoir number 3 near Rock River, WY one of the best spots for flat water / chop sailing in the world. Windy.
Nice! Ever see anyone kiting out there?
Not sure, the sudden gusts may be a bit gnarly for kiting.
these were actually good tips. Thanks
Merci
Top!
😍 "Promosm"
Amazing 👌💕💞
Quite easy and both repairs holding up perfectly!
Great video Manu !!! Quick question: What is the size of the sail? I want to build my own windskater....thanks !
I was using 4.2 which is a nice blend of flicker and weight. On dirt I'd use something like 5.0. Watching this video makes me want to slide over concrete!!! So much fun this thing although dirt windsurfing at the local park is also plenty fun!!!
Thanks!
Ciao manu bel video io sono un old windserfer navigo ancora con un sunset slalom f2 che mi dispiace mettere in cantina un saluto Luca
Ciao Luca! Conosci Cabarete? Vuoi venire?
Take care prizing off as the tabs can snap, alternate a little each side
Thanks man! I'm at the first month...
The hardest is behind you! Where are you sailing?
@@manuwindsurfing Italy! Do you feel that having a good ramp to jump will make things easier? Because the last attempt I landed at full speed with my back, I feel jumping higher will convert some velocity into height, what do you think?
@@TheAlphahot1 A small ramp coming towards us ideal (ex: jericoacoara) because it lifts the nose of the board up and we can concentrate on sail movement only. Speed is critical to land them planing but when learning all we need is enough to pop the board. I'd focus on throwing the boom up and across, that's what gives us the lift needed. When in the air, keep front arm extended and stiff so you go horizontal. If you want a faster rotation then tuck your back leg under your bum hard.
Great video. Appreciate you just knocking out the important points.
Thank you! Anything you would like to know more in particular or are interested in outside of this one? As you might have seen in my latest video, I plan on making a series of quick tips. Basically a summary of tips gathered from discussion and experience!
This looks wrong and too loose, but after breaking by ankle because of too tight front strap, I am ready to consider alternative ways
It sure does, doesn't it? Early in my career my foot got a ganglion cyst from having straps too tight. The 2 key points of the vid that allow us to keep control over the trim of the board while having loose footstraps are: 1. Rotate or twist the front foot to its side 2. Lean against the front side of the strap itself to drive the board forward Some riders have the straps much bigger than mine, I'm not sure how they manage so there is certainly a wide variety of setups out there!
Top tip: ignore advice from amateurs and go watch Guy Cribb's video on footstrap setup instead.
Pros have things that work for them and may not be for everyone. Ever seen them stuck in one strap while trying to bail?! 😨😨😨 scary... They do often get hurt, although some of it is due to the nature of their discipline. What works for you?
