boogieboarded
Rode prone shoreward
Boogieboarded is the past tense of boogieboard, meaning to ride a bodyboard—a short, rectangular foam board ridden lying down or kneeling on ocean waves.
Unlike surfing, which requires standing, boogieboarding keeps the rider prone: We boogieboarded in the shallows all afternoon.
Also spelled as two words: boogie boarded.
