 Golfsporten (Laatste wijziging 27-08-2010)

Golfsporten vallen doorgaans in de categorie boardsporten.
Onderstaande filmpjes geven een aardige indruk van de boardsporten die beoefend worden in gebieden
(vooral de oceaankusten) waar regelmatig zware branding ontstaat als gevolg van stormen die soms
heel ver van de locatie af zijn ontstaan.
Via de swell arrival calculator is te berekenen wanneer de swell op een bepaalde spot verwacht wordt.

Handige sites voor wind en golfvoorspellingen zijn: Wetsand, Windguru en Windfinder.

Op Wikipedia is de nodige informatie te vinden over boardsporttermen zoals Bodyboading, Wipeouts,
Tow-in surfing en beroemde spots zoals Jaws beach, Le Belharra, Mavericks.

 Wave sports (Latest change 27-08-2010)

The videos below give you a good impression of the boardsports that are practiced in coastal
area's with a big swell (originated from storms on a longe distance).
Swell arrival calculators are use to calculate the swell on a specific moment on a spot.

Usefull wave and windprediction sites are: Wetsand, Windguru en Windfinder.

Wikipedia gives a lot of information about wave sports terms: Bodyboading, Wipeouts,
Tow-in surfing and famous spots like Jaws beach, Le Belharra, Mavericks.
