Include things like Wakeboarding and Waterskiing, and you'd probably have some takers.

And which one of those is you? Because one of the three pics I posted is of me.

Besides, it is somewhat difficult to surf or windsurf in the Salt Lake valley. And sailing just isn't enough of a rush...

No, it's not difficult to windsurf in the SL Valley.
http://utahwindriders.org/forum/

There's all kinds of people windsurfing in Utah. And as of a few years ago, a major windsurfing manufacturer was based in Utah.

All you need is wind and water (and temperatures warm enough for a wetsuit).

I've seen massive air on just little waves created from wind. I myself have gotten to about 30mph on my board. Trust me, there are plenty of thrills, excitement, danger in windsurfing.

I am trying to decide who wears the cooler flotation devices....windsurfers or wake boarders?

Moron. None of the windsurfers pictured above are wearing a flotation device. Yes, all of the wakeboarders are wearing a flotation device.

Me personally, I do wear a life jacket. For safety.
