Well, now watched the start windsurfing videos on that website and I commend your choice of Phantom variant, so long as they all come with that blue sea, white sand and board short n rash vest weather I reckon you're onto a winner regards mojo  Cool

The secret to good ironing is the application of water, patience and precision.  

So in many ways it not too dissimilar from sailing dinghies... except when there's no wind, when it's clearly much more fun... and can be combined with windsurfing, which is infinitely superior in every respect:

I'm crap at both, and disappointed that the Phantom in question is some rubbishy plank. Though it does spare us 18 months of whinging followed by an an on Apollo Duck.

I'm still up for it.
It doesn't matter how good and fast a board is, if you can't stand up on it LOL  Embarrassed

He hasn't just got to 'stand up on it' to get the best out of it, he's got to learn how to operate that little foot pedal and slide that mast track back and forward.

For a leisure activity there really are a lot of potential irritations. Stuff that can be tolerated at work but not during a fun activity.

What causes this loss of Mojo for you?


Yep - that.
