A windsport is any type of sport which involves wind-power, often involving a non-rigid airfoil such as a sail or a power kite. The activities can be land-based, on snow, on ice or on water. Windsport activity may be regulated in some countries by aviation/maritime authorities if they are likely to interfere with other activities. Local authorities may also regulate activity in certain areas, especially on crowded beaches and parks. *Ice boating - using a masted sail attached to a vessel with skates *Kite boating - sailing a boat in displacement or planing mode using a kite *Kite landboarding - using a power kite with a wheeled board while standing *Kite buggy - using a wheeled buggy with seats attached to a power kite *Kite flying - flight of a small airfoil by a standing ground operator using 1-4 flying lines *Kite jumping - brief acrobatic flight using a large kite *Kite skating - as for kite jumping but while using specialized skates *Kite surfing - using a surfboard attached to a power kite *Land sailing - a masted sail attached to a land vehicle - see also land yacht *Sailing - navigating a boat with sail attached to a mast *Snowkiting - skiing/snowboarding under the power of a kite *Windsurfing - sailing using a masted sail attached via a gimbal to a surfboard *Sail biking - using a power kite to pull a specialized bicycle (like land sailing) ==Air sports== The following air sports are not classed as windsports because in these the participants actually leave the ground for long periods and many do not use the wind: *Gliding - use of vertically moving air to keep an aircraft aloft *Hang gliding - use of vertically moving air to keep aloft an aircraft with a flexible wing *Microlighting - flying a hang glider with an engine (also see ultralight aircraft) *Parachuting (skydiving) and base jumping - controlled descent of the operator under a large flexible canopy *Paragliding - soaring under a parachute canopy *Parasailing - hanging under a paraglider towed by a vehicle (boat, car, or snowmobile) in order to ascend (usually over water) *Air Ballooning - a balloon you ride which uses fire to go up and wind to stay afloat 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「windsport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
