Windsurfing , a surface water sport with the use of a sailboard or windsurf board , is one of the most popular adventure sports in the world. The windsurf boards have one sail which takes in the wind and this helps the windsurfers to move fast on the surface of water. The windsurf boards, depending on the shape of their sails, are classified into two types- Camber induced and rotational. Some windsurf boards are also specially designed and these designs help the riders to perform several tricks while windsurfing. The Freeride board, the Formula Windsurfing Class boards are a few examples of the windsurfing boards. The sport of windsurfing, apart from being a competitive sport, is also a form of entertainment and hobby.
