Oda Johanne about the Starboard GO Windsurfer:
“The GO Windsurfer is a great board to progress your windsurfing skills. When I am coaching I like that my students can use the dagger fin to have a more stable board while learning basic skills. It also helps to come back upwind again. The amazing clipper box system makes sure the dagger fin stays in place while sailing. The moment my students improve they can put the straps further outboard and skip using the dagger fin. Like that, they have a great board to progress on, get planing and practicing gybes! This is a great board for the whole family to enjoy sailing on!”
