Wingsurfing is probably the fastest growing fun sport in the world at the moment. But where do all the new wingsurfers come from? We would like to find out from you as part of a small survey.

Wingsurfing is exploding all over the world. Whether at the smallest quarry pond or in the breakers off Mauritius, the new sport is captivating people everywhere. But where do all these wingsurfers come from? Are they "outsiders" from other water sports such as kitesurfing, windsurfing or SUP? Or is the sport also attracting people who have never tried water sports before?

Tell us how you got into wingsurfing - to view this survey, simply activate the "external content"!
