Pritchard Windsurfing - Steppin Up on DVD!

Welcome to our new site PritchardWindsurfing.com!! My brother and I have been working on making something from the both of us to kinda tie the blog and some other cool stuff into one! We are both going to be active and making this a sweet site to hang out, ask questions and live the dream. I will be continuing my blog and Matt will be adding interesting How To's and moves as well as some EQ tech stuff. Since we are now both on the Gaastra program we figured now is the time to do it. So hear it is... Log in and send us a comment and enjoy the site. We are just starting off so bear with us for now- we will be getting some cool stuff up and running very soon.

Steppin Up on DVD!

Written by Matt Pritchard

Hey Bloggers,

You gotta check out this video…… We filmed this back in 1997 when we were youngens! Not only is it funny, there are some great techniques in this video that you will find extremely valuable!
Our narrator and producer, Brian Casserio did a great job at showing some computer generated diagrams along with “step by step break it down get it in your head info” that will make it easy for you to visualize the moves!
If you want to Step it up, send us an email and we can get you out a copy for just $23.95! We teach all the basic moves that will enhance your performance. One handed Jibes, Tacks, Duck Jibes, Helicopter tacks and the Carving 360! We wanted to do a retro special for everyone and here you have it.
We are also wondering if anyone out there would like to see a new video “how to series” from the Pritchard bros….. Tell us what you would like to see!!!!! Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Let us know via a Comment right here!

Would love to see a new updated video! I have the original in VHS. As far as content keep I'd stick to the basics which help build the foundation to other complicated moves. Similar to your 1st vid, but with front, back, push loops, shove-its. Would also like to hear your thoughts on gear for on-shore and off-shore wave riding (in real world conditions). When discussing gear, I would keep in the back of your mind that most of us real world guys have to use the same boards and sails in both conditions, so tuning is the key. For mainland sailing, I would like to see some discussion on light wind wave sailing and gear!

Definitely a how to series. Shove its and backward loops. Also the vulcan and spock would be good to see. Still struggling.

I'd also love to see an updated how-to series. I'm not quite at the level of some of the moves asked for by the other guys here, but here is my request: I'd like to see basics of wave ridding and swell slashing. Describing the bottom turn, board pressure, sail movement/control, etc. Also, talk about basic sailing in high wind, how to tune your rig for different conditions. this could be done through the lense of different sailing spots. I.e., one spot may demand certain technique and tuning because of gusty winds or current or whatever, and another spot will be different.
thanks!

Most of us only have the opportunity to sail in down the line conditions on holiday but we have onshore conditions all the time. Maybe you could include some onshore wave riding. I liked Matt's comments in the Pro Secrets video.
