SAILBOARDING
FOR EVERYONE

Jeff Toghill

There are few participation sports which have as wide appeal as sailboarding.   Kids love it.
   Teenagers exhaust their youthful energy on it.   Mums and dads find it an exciting family
sport.  And oldies reactivate their waning vigour with it.

Ordinary, everyday sailboarding requires only average skill, modest energy and little
physical strength when it is done properly.   It is within the reach of everyone.   Patience is
the only real requirement of this exhilerating sport.   Now matter how young or old you are,
sailboarding is there for you to enjoy if you have the patience and perseverance.
