A great sport which got me involved in the world of watersports. Is a relatively cheap way to get on the water which is much better for emerging and smaller nations without big budgets. It is also better suited and safer for racing disciplines.

Windsurfing you can do without giving trouble to other surfers. Kitesurfers can be very dangerous en is given often problems to other watersporters.

It is a great sport, it shouldn't get lost. The displacement of the sport is a dangerous and life-threatening sport.

Windsurfing has been a constantly evolving sport from the minute it was put in the Olympics. Replacing it with such short notice will ruin many's dreams to become an olympian. Also, both sports can be included in the olympics without a problem.

I windsurf as many time as I can. This is a great sport. Less risky than Kitesurf. This is closer to navigation and sailing. It is more and more accesible to a wider group of people. It requires less beach space than kite surf.
