windsurfing
Standing sail sport
Windsurfing is a water sport combining elements of surfing and sailing.
The rider stands on a board and maneuvers a sail attached to a rotating mast, using wind power to glide across the water.
Also called boardsailing or sailboarding.
We went windsurfing off the coast of Maui.
