Does anyone actually refer to their board alone as a windsurfer? Sad I know, but I am genuinely curious. Mmmm... semantics.
Is the only reference to "sailboarding" on this website in this forum topic
BTW, this topic lives under: All Forums > WindSurfing > General
ahhh good ol Franny. They dont make em like that anymore. Eleven foot long,pink, solid as a rock,retractable centreboard. (fun girl) Then of course theres "Monique maui "and "Rachael Ride"...
....and, Isnt boogie board a name brand for a body board.??? Is the boogy man a nose picker??? If I take my body board to the disco could I still boogie(all night long)yessir? But what if I get boogie fever???(an uncontolable river of hot snot??) Why is a surf ski a ski?? All these questions and yet questionable certainy in all things.
I have a car, but when I'm driving it I'm not "carring", I'm driving. 
To me its windsurfing, and windsurfers, and I go sailing (if the wind ever comes back
).
Its wrong because the first rule of the English language is there is always an exception to the rule.
In this case the exception is the exceptional sport of windsurfing, surfing the wind.

sometimes eskimos wake up to find themselves adrift on a piece of ice that has broken off from land. In this situation they hang their parka on a spear,and using the wind, make their way back to safety. They call this "floe blowing".......
