: Water's versatility may ensure its elite status within hydro-electric power stations and flushing toilets, but as a recreational utility, extreme caution is required. Everyone understands the simple joy of dousing Jehovah's Witnesses with a hose, but quite what surfers are doing, bobbing about on 30ft waves, is anyone's guess.

It means that, unless you are a surfer yourself, you can really have no idea of the pleasure gained from the pastime - or any other pastime come to that. You can only guess at the pleasure and your guess is a good as anyone else.
