ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is provided for creating the ramp or "jump" in the water, much like a ski jump, but being constructed such that a rather thick layer beneath the top surface is non-integral to permit the fin of the windsurfer to pass therethrough. The maintenance of this non-integral layer may be created in several ways, the simplest being the utilization of a water jet or jets somewhat beneath the water level which create a continuous mound or ramp of water. Other approaches utilize a thick layer of bristles saturated with water, and a layer of gel.
