WINDGLIDER [1 record]

Record 1 2007-10-02

English

Subject field(s)
  • Sports Equipment and Accessories
  • Surfing and Water-Skiing
CONT

The WindGlider is truly a remarkable multi-use watercraft. It can be transformed into a Windsurfer, a sit-on-top kayak, a performance towable, a sailboat, or a motor tender.

CONT

A Mistral WindGlider is a sailboard that caters specifically for first time surfers. This board is inflatable, lightweight and ideal for learning how to navigate the winds.

CONT

The windglider is a steady, easy to ride windsurfer. No wind? No problem. Pop off the sail and you have a sit-on-top kayak or a two person towable toy.

CONT

WindGlider, now called Aquaglide, combines the tranquility of sailing, the thrill of windsurfing and the fun of kayaking in a compact package that can be taken anywhere and costs only a fraction of the price of any sailboat, paddleboat or windsurfer.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Équipement et accessoires de sport
  • Ski nautique et surfing
DEF

Genre de planche à voile de catégorie olympique.

CONT

Concernant à proprement parler les pratiques sportives, la Windglider est certes une planche à voile, mais aussi un véritable petit bateau à voile, une bouée tractée derrière un bateau (grâce à la housse PowerGlide), un kayak avec ses pagaies (siège en option) ou plus simplement encore une plate-forme de natation pour les enfants.
