Just because someone has been training longer doesn't mean they are better. Luke was the best swordsman in 300 years according to the campers and had all that time Thalia was a tree to train. Yet Thalia managed to beat him in combat with less training and time. Also, Thalia has a shield to help block some of that wind. A shield that radiates fear mind you and scares anyone that looks at it. In a way, if Jason tried to blind Thalia with wind, she could blind him with fear or at the very least, make it very hard to focus on that wind. Plus Thalia is also a daughter of Zeus so even if she has never tried to control the wind, it way still roll off her like water does for Percy.
