Related to these sports 'chop' gave me a stress fracture ...which happened before when I used to play football &hernias can get worse with load pop
...every time I hear someone with an injury from load pop such as cracked ribs etc I just yawn..'here we go again'
Anyway ...so I never go out in mega- chop anymore and the bang bang from racing would be chop
And also have lots of pads on board
Beware of choppy mess

I note you didn't windsurf. Be a way shorter list if you did. No need to keep experimenting then 
I like that 
and very true
but I am always amazed how well and how long wind surfers can hang about with practically the whole body in the water after falling off on turns in more than 10metre deep water at least with zero vis & sometimes for at least 4minutes ...
I've often gone past and kept looking back to check on them even 1km+ out ....and four or five minutes later they are still there out there hanging about 'not at all concerned' 
Sharksmart etc
