Freestyle is for everyone. It's brought the thrills of wave sailing to flat water
and, best of all, it's made falling in cool again.
Prepare to get totally twisted in Showin Off 2. In this, the second programme in
the series, the guru Peter Hart and his international dream team of Brian Talma, Ant
Baker, Peter Volwater, Karin Jaggi and old titanic twinkle toes himself, Dave White, start
to push the relationship between man (or woman) and board to breaking point. Oh
yes...and there's Nobby...enough said.
Having looked mostly at the carving movesin program one, the team now turn their
attention to the whackier tacks and aerial tricks. The following are demonstrated
and stripped down to the barest detail.
Heli tack, upwind 360, duck tack, nose sink tack, push tack, clew first 360, aerial
gybe, willy skipper, spin loop, vulcan, spock, lolly-pop and autorotator and, if that
wasn't enough, wou'll witness the first ever performances of the 'Park the Boat', 'Flying
Prince Charles' and 'Beach the Whale'.
There are separate sections on combination moves, different approaches to training and
learning complicated moves.
Whatever standard you aspire to, the team's lucid, analytical approach, incisive tips
and ever humourous delivery make the seemingly impossible appear instantly achievable.
Filmed on the legendary azure waters off Neilson's cnetre in Vassiliki on the Greek
island of Lefkas, Showin' Off is spectacular, informative, funny, and set to become every
freestyler's bible.
