Pictured above is the Italian RS:X Windsurfer racer Alessandra Sensini, the overall women's winner of the 2008 World Championships held in Takapuna, New Zealand.

I will try to make the most of the opportunity in the next 24 hours to explain windsurfing to the masses and to make the case for certain political changes within the sport that are necessary for it to grow in the United States.
