Goals for ABK clinic participants include learning to sail confidently and in all conditions,
perfect tacks and jibes, gain confidence in high wind sailing, carved jibes, jumping and other
advanced techniques. No matter age or experience, an ABK adventure will improve your ability
and virtually every aspect of windsurfing.
Clinics place a strong emphasis on instruction in a small group environment stressing the
fundamentals of windsurfing including sail trimming, tacking, jibing, speed, water starts,
freestyle, racing and beyond.
A typical clinic schedule begins on Monday morning when participants are divided into small
groups according to their ability level. Each group work session begins with a lecture,
followed by on the water demonstrations and/or on land simulator work, and then on water
instruction. At midday break for lunch. After lunch, the afternoon lectures begin.
Lecture topics increase in sophistication as the clinic progresses. The group continues
to specialize and refine techniques to meet each individual's needs.
After a full day on the water, it's time for video analysis where sailors can see themselves in
action, laugh, and most importantly, learn from their mistakes. The clinic runs for five days
with Wednesday afternoon off for sightseeing.
