Features of a windsurfboard for beginners
Center fin vs. Daggerboard
A beginner windsurfboard is designed to help you learn to windsurf as best as possible. Beginner windsurf boards have a daggerboard or center fin. This provides stability and keeps your windsurfboard better on course. When your windsurfing skills gets better, you can fold the daggerboard and continue surfing without a daggerboard. An intermediate solution for this daggerboard is a so called center fin. A center fin is a fin that is placed in a box in the middle of the beginner surfboard. This construction has a number of advantages over a daggerboard. The construction is cheaper, lighter and more solid. Furthermore, at an advanced stage, the box can be covered to create a board without a daggerboard.
Quality family windsurfboard
Windsurfboards nowadays have to be produced faster and lighter but because of this these windsurfboards are also vulnerable. Because the nose of the board is reinforced, the boards are stronger and will stay in one piece when a sail or mast falls on them.
Volume of a beginner windsurfboard
A big advantage of beginner boards is that they have a lot of volume. This means that they have a lot of buoyancy and don't sink fast. During windsurfing a beginner windsurfboard stays stable and you can learn safely. Of course it is also great to stand together with your parent on a family windsurfboard, and this is fine with the high volume. When you get better at windsurfing you can get into the planing faster in strong winds and continue to grow in this beautiful sport.
