The aim of this study is to understand the development of windsports and the challenges faced by wind-based leisure activities.
The socio-historical dynamics behind the development of wind leisure are analysed on the basis of specialised tourism blogs, as well as a field study carried out in the Northeast Region of Brazil, combining ethnographic observations and semi-structured interviews with 6 wind leisure enthusiasts. All the data is processed using the serious leisure perspective tools developed by Stebbins, and the body ecology tools developed by Andrieu et al.
The results show that wind sports provide a dual continuum. First of all, there are the practitioners, from Neophyte to Devotee Worker. Then there is the junction between land, water and air, where wind practices ensure a dual aesthetic. On the one hand, riders are united by a community of flow, emotion and sensation mediated by their relationship with the wind and the creation of play materials (waves, lagoons, trade winds). On the other hand, the tourist development of these practices serves a political narrative based on postcard aesthetics, enabling wind concessions to be traded for the development of wind farms.
this original research calls for a more systematic exploration of wind practices and the hybridisation of natural elements, which seems to illustrate the crisis that modern sport and its institutions are going through today.
本研究旨在了解风帆运动的发展以及以风为基础的休闲活动所面临的挑战。
基于专业旅游博客，以及在巴西东北地区开展的一项实地研究，结合人种志观察和对6位风帆休闲爱好者的半结构化访谈，分析风帆休闲发展背后的社会历史动态。所有数据均使用斯特宾斯开发的严肃休闲视角工具以及安德里厄等人开发的身体生态学工具进行处理。
结果表明，风帆运动提供了一个双重连续体。首先，有从新手到狂热从业者的参与者。其次，在陆地、水域和空气的交界处，风帆活动确保了一种双重美感。一方面，骑手们通过一个由流动、情感和感觉构成的群体联系在一起，这种联系由他们与风的关系以及游戏材料（海浪、泻湖、信风）的创造所介导。另一方面，这些活动的旅游开发服务于一种基于明信片美学的政治叙事，使得风能特许权得以用来换取风力发电场的发展。
这项原创研究呼吁对风帆活动以及自然元素的混合进行更系统的探索，这似乎说明了现代体育及其机构如今正在经历的危机。
