Claims23
A waterboard, comprising:
- a front panel having a rear edge;
- a rear panel having a front edge adapted to be removably coupled to the rear edge of the front panel;
- and
- an interface comprising a flexible material, the interface having a predetermined performance characteristic, wherein a first end of the interface is adapted to be coupled to a selected one of the front panel and the rear panel, and wherein the selected panel comprises a cassette that is adapted to be coupled to the first end of the interface, and wherein a second end of the interface is adapted to extend beyond an edge of the selected panel;
- wherein the coupled front panel and rear panel together form a waterboard having a performance characteristic based upon the performance characteristic of the interface.
