board sailing requires sustained isometric contraction of the pectoralis major, deltoid and scapular stabilizers to maintain appropriate pull of the sail against wind resistance.

During beating and reaching, the trapezius, flexor carpi ulnaris, extensor carpi radialis, biceps brachii and tibialis anterior were very active, with the gluteus maximus being particularly important in beating.

injuries may be ascribed to the fact that the patients' feet were fixed in footstraps and that their legs were twisted during the fall.

symptoms resolved with conservative treatment, including cessation of windsurfing and a brief course of oral corticosteroids

The maneuvers most likely to result in injury were jumping, high-speed falls, and catapult falls.

jumps and loops are combined with a high risk of injury.

performances are highly dependent on the capacity of the athlete to maintain a high HR for long periods of time. (fitness ya3ny)

Aim of this study was to analyse the mechanisms of windsurfing injuries.
