If anyone wants to understand the science behind windsurfing check out the link below. Jim Drake was behind the X-15 design and has written some very technical papers on the physics of windsurfing. The links to these near the top of the page. It helps to have had Statics and Dynamics in college to understand all the vector derivations.
