Windsurfing History:
The beginning of windsurfing can be traced back to 1965, when two good friends, Hoyle Schweitzer and Jim Drake wanted to combine surfing and sailing. They had seen that the major problem in surfing was that you had to wait for waves. They both came from southern California. Jim Drake was an aeronautical designer and Schweitzer a businessman. Drake came up with the idea of an articulated mast and so they developed the universal joint. By the end of 1968 they patented the first windsurf board, the "Windsurfer" So from a combination from surfing and sailing, they developed windsurfing.
