... / ''“/f'
An effortless, graceful glide is the goal of every windsurfer.
Windsurfing: wet and wild fun
•‘Catch a wave and you’re sittin’ on top of
the world...” goes the song by the Beach Boys
that was gospel to those Southern Californians
in the 1960s that turned the sport of surfing into
sun and fun hysteria. Well, it’s 20 years later
now and while the song still fits, the sport has
evolved into something new. Windsurfing, or
sailboarding, has become the sport of the thrill
oriented 1980s.
Sailboarding is one of the fastest growing
sports in the United States today, with hundreds
of the sports enthusiasts indulging in their habit
here in Oregon. The elusive appeal of gliding ef
fortlessly and gracefully across the water in
what can be called a sailboat for one has lured
all of these people into giving sailboarding a try.
The sailboard was born 15 years ago in an
aeronautical engineer’s garage in Santa Monica,
California. Sailor-engineer John Drake and
surfer-computer expert Hoyle Schweitzer
mounted a sail onto a surfboard to create what
became the first Windsurfer-brand sailboard.
While the sailboard itself has changed
significantly since the early days, the gusto with
which the sport is attempted has remained the
same.
"It’s like an addiction,” University senior
Will Brady explains. "The more you do it, the
more you want to do it." And Brady and fellow
University senior Jack Rush do it a lot. These
two transplanted Californians are perhaps the
University’s most dedicated sailboard en
thusiasts. Four out of five Fridays will find
Brady and Kush packing up for a weekend at
one of Oregon’s prime sailboarding locales.
Bandon and Newport are two of their favorite
spots. “We go up and down the coast looking
for waves. . .there’s always somewhere good,”
Brady says. He attributes the great windsurfing
conditions on the Oregon coast to strong nor
therly winds.
Both men started windsurfing after becom
ing established surfers. Brady went through
high school in Palos Verdes “with a bunch of
friends going surfing before breakfast, after
lunch...whenever we could,” Brady notes.
He worked in a boatyard and it was in 1979
that he discovered his first sailboard. "A friend
had an old stock Windsurfer and 1 went out into
Hurricane Gultch in San Pedro. I learned by
myself because not many people were doing it
then,” Brady said.
Brady wanted more, so he sold his sailboat
and bought a sailboard. Unfortunately, the one
he bought was not meant for ocean surf. “I took
it out. the third or fourth day and broke
everything... ripped the sail, broke the
boom. . .everything.”
Brady has since learned much about the
sport through his exploits along the Oregon and
California coasts. He is a certified windsurfing
instructor now and teaches through Southbay
Windsurfing in San Pedro, lie and Rush also
make their own boards and Brady serves as the
Oregon representative for Streamline Sports of
San Pedro.
Performance and speed vary with the con
struction and design of different boards. Boards
12 feet, 6 inches and above are called
“uphaulers.” To begin moving on this par
ticular kind, the rider leans over and yanks on a
line to upright the board. With a shorter board,
the rider lies on the water, beneath the sail,
pointing towards the wind. The wind then lifts
the sail and sucks up the rider to begin moving.
Short boards are faster than long boards but they
require more skill to operate. When riding, one
either sails quickly or sinks quickly on a short
board. There is nothing in between.
Forever in search of the perfect wave, Brady
and Rush attended the Oregon Institute of
Marine Biology in Charleston last spring. Brady
said it was great because the institute is within
sight of the surf. “Windsurfing seven days a
week; it’s just like home,” he remarked.
While both men would like to continue
their beach bum ways in the future, Rush will
graduate this year and move out into the work
ing world. Brady, however, is questioning his
market value in the real world. “I started work
ing at a regular job this past summer,” he said,
“but I bailed on it after two days and went back
to four-hour days at the windsurfing shop.”

Developed over 15 years ago, windsurfing is one of the fastest growing sports
in America today.
Sail size and board length alter the performance of a sailboard.
Short boards move faster than long boards but are more difficult
to control.
