hi all. Im 28 years old and I never surfed in my life but I want to start
1- is it too late?
2- Can I surf just with all info at youtube ?
3- What should be the dimensions of the board and sail ( Im 180cm tall ( 5'11" ) and I have ocean with lots of windsurfers with so nice wind and I want a fast surf so which one should I choose???
well dont buy gear, go take a class, learning on ur own is hard and not good (im an instructor) and videos dont necisarly help, they r nice but not great, dont buy gear until u r absolutely ready and u actually r deticated to the sport ( and gear is very expensive!!)
@peri8215 Taking corners will require some practice, but I don't think you would start too late. I've seen 50 year olds windsurfing so...
I guess it's most easy to learn with an instructor, maybe you can go to a surf school where they'll teach you how to surf. With a lot of wind, a 5 or 6 m2 sail would do. Depending on your weight, you should buy a board that floats well (if it's a lighter one sinking when not moving itll be very hard). like 130+ Liters may be good to start.
if u need a board that big and a sail that big .. dont go out .. not worth going out

Definitely not too late.
I recommend you buy the DVD Beginner to Winner (or download it if that's your thing).
After watching it you'll have more than enough information to start windsurfing.
