    Windsurfing uses a board and sail powered by wind across water, unlike surfing which uses waves. It originated centuries ago in Polynesia but developed as a modern sport in the 1960s. Windsurfing became an Olympic sport for men in 1984 and women in 1992, with two current events where competitors complete 12 qualifying races and a final medal race.

    Windsurfing

    What Is Windsurfing?

    Windsurfing is a form of sailing, where a


    board is powered across the water by the
    wind. Unlike surfing, windsurfing uses the
    wind to propel forward while surfing uses the
    force of waves.
    you will need a board, sail, mast and boom.
    Origin
    Polynesians have been using boards with sails for
    hundreds of years. It wasn’t until the 1960s that
    windsurf board design really developed and it became
    the sport we know today.
    WINDSURFING IN THE OLYMPICS

    Windsurfing became an
    official Olympic sport for
    men in 1984 and women in
    1992. There are currently
    two Olympic events – the
    women’s RS:X and men’s
    RS:X – each compete in 12
    races with the top ten
    from those events going
    into the final medal race
