Hey guys,
I have made good progress, I can now sail, tack and beach start (not well but i can still do it). tomorrow i learn to use the harness, plane and maybe gybe. I even upgraded from a 4.5 sail to a 5.7. All i need to do now to get good at it all

I also have most of my own gear (thanks to evlPanda), all i need now is a board and then im all set.
