I’ve done my share of sailing (in a small boat) and also sailboarding/windsurfing, and it is great fun. I’m sure this is rather similar, but it certainly has its own challenges. At least it should be far easier to get back on after a spill. On the other hand the sand is surely much more abrasive than water when thinks go akimbo.
Oh, brilliant fun – I had a go on Newgale beach in Pembrokeshire in the early 1990s

Never had the chance… but have watched several times. The races look just a tad dangerous at times…still fun 😃
