|  Windsurfing
is the most amazing of sports, combining the thrills of surfing and the tranquility
of sailing. It is a sport where you can go off by yourself for some peace of mind,
or enjoy the camaraderie of sailing with the crowd of 200 other windsurfers. No
sport other than windsurfing can give you the same feeling of being out in beautiful,
clear and open water, gliding along effortlessly. A windsurfer has virtually unlimited
access to the nations' waterways. It's fun, it's easy - it's the perfect sport.

speeds at Rooster Rock have been measured at 110 mph. Read
