1. How's about this book The Introduction to The Windsurfing Bible is
FREE and will give you a deeper understanding of windsurfing and your
own windsurfing ability. You also will learn which books of The
Windsurfing Bible to read, and in what order. You'll get a few laughs,
too. An excerpt of Book 1 and a download link is available by clicking
the Title to the left.
2. Necessary Knowledge Necessary Knowledge is just that, necessary (not
to mention FREE.) It covers basic to advanced windsurfing concepts
that you need to understand to help learn new skills. Also explained
are terms and ideas used throughout The Windsurfing Bible. Plus, you
learn HLOWs: the simple keys to master new techniques.

Windsurfing Information-

Part I. Light-Wind Sailing
Buy all 4 books of Part 1 together as a package! The link to the left
also contains an introduction to windsurfing in light-wind, beginning
techniques, and an explanation of the skills described by the 4 books
in Part I.
3. In the Beginning Books 3, 4 and 5 form the foundation upon which all
of your windsurfing, for the rest of your life, is based. Skills
covered are rigging, carrying your gear, getting on the board without
pain, uphauling, setting-sail, tacking, and gybing.

sailboard uphaul-
4. Steering, Stance & Sailing This book expands the foundation formed
in the previous books. You learn how to steer in all four directions,
to sail comfortably without strain, and to handle all the different
sailing situations that you will encounter.

Windsurf Instruction-

Part II. Moderate-Wind Sailing
Buy all 4 books of Part 2 together as a package! The link to the left
also contains an introduction to windsurfing in moderate-wind,
intermediate techniques, and an explanation of the skills described by
the 4 books in Part 2.
5. Moderate-Wind Stance & Harness The first time you sail in higher
wind and become overpowered by the sail, you will understand why this
book is for you. It covers advanced techniques of setting-sail, the
moderate wind stance, higher wind windsurfing techniques, how to handle
gust, and how to comfortably and safely sail in your harness.

Windsurfing Harness-
6. Beachstart Tired of uphauling? When you master this easy maneuver,
your lower back will be eternally grateful. And, the beachstart is
easy when you follow the six steps described in this book. The
Beachstop, a real crown pleaser, is also covered.

Windsurf Beach Start-
7. Fast Tack This is your first advanced turning technique. It is also
one that you will use for as long as you windsurf. It is safe and
dependable, even on a short board. It's also easy, when you follow the
six steps.

Windsurfing Tack-
8. Flare Gybe The Flare Gybe is the appropriate turn in the majority of
windsurfing conditions found throughout the world. Use it on a long
board or a short board when light wind prevents the use of footstraps.
It also is the basis for the Carved Gybe Recovery explained in Book 11.

Windsurfing Jibe-

Part III. High-Wind Sailing
An introduction to windsurfing in high-wind, advanced techniques, and
an explanation of the skills described by the 5 books in Part III.
It's FREE and the complete excerpt is available by clicking the link to
the left.
9. High-Wind Stance & Footstraps Besides the high-wind footstrap
stance, other skills are how to get into your footstraps without
rounding upwind, how to sail fast, how to sail upwind (thus avoiding a
rescue), foot-steering, and preventing spin-out.

Windsurfing Footstraps-
10. Waterstart Uphauling in high-wind is difficult at best, but
virtually impossible on a short board. If you face these conditions or
want to sail high-wind equipment, you need this essential skill.

windsurf waterstart-
11. Carved Gybes The Carved Gybe is the most desired maneuver in
windsurfing. Four variations are taught: the Step Gybe, the Feet
First Carved Gybe, the Feet Last Carved Gybe, and the Carved Gybe
Recovery. You master these gybes by starting with land and water
exercises, then moving through the 6 steps. You gradually build skill
and confidence until everything comes together into one spectacular
maneuver.

The Carved Jibe-
12. Ski & Laydown Gybes The Ski Gybe is a different type of carved gybe
that skiers and skaters find easier to learn. On the other hand, the
Laydown Gybe is more traditional, but with a different sail
manipulation technique. Two additional methods of flipping the sail
are also explained.

Windsurfing jibe-
13. Duck Gybes For some people, this maneuver is easier than the
traditional carved gybe. We start with a sail-360, progress to the
moderate-wind Duck Flare Gybe, and then cover the high-wind Duck Gybe.
It's a crowd pleaser, too.

windsurf jibe-
14. Rigging Another FREEBIE. This book covers getting the most out of
your equipment by fine tuning your sail, mast-foot, centerboard,
footstraps, and skeg.
15. Equipment A comprehensive guide to choosing the best equipment for
you and your sailing area. Categories covered are general information,
boards, sails, accessories, attire, and sources to purchase your gear.
Plus, it's also FREE.
16. Stampeding Fish Curious? Well, you'll just have to read it to find
out. It's funny, it's informative, it's FREE and it might save a life;
possibly yours!

Heads up: There's an ongoing spamdexing of Google searchbot algorithms. Sites that are 'copies of copies' and cloaked sites which include Zorgium keywords presented to search engine crawlers yet garbage content presented to human visitors were hosted on thousands of IP addresses and domains registered immediately after the introduction of Zorgium in November of 2009. The Hostgator/'The Planet'/Softlayer datacenters in Texas seem to be the epicenter of this activity in conjunction with anonymously registered domains of various TLD's but primarily .info domains at Godaddy which, in our opinion, has some sort of connection to the domains of goldmint.in and goldmint.org. Google has begun to notice this and has begun to lower the ranking of these sites and put our original sites back on top of the search rankings. These actions, as far as we can tell, negatively impact the use of the keyword 'zorgium' as a search term and provided little benefit, if any, to the perpetrators.

ZORGIUM note to content providers: If you don't want your page to appear in Zorgium's search abstraction then put an exclusion for "Zorgium" in your web server's robots.txt file.
