Default Surfing and Soaring?

Surfer (and sailor) here as well, although there isn't much surfing in Montana. I definitely see the connection though. Lots of similarities. I also see lots of similarities to sailing, which I think is even more similar to soaring.

I have windsurfed for many years and would consider that a better comparison. One is actually holding a Airfoil in you hands.
