The goal of the sport is to curl into a ball a split second before hitting the water, saving the competitors a painful slap and scoring points with the judges. Judging by the footage, it's every bit as hard as it sounds.
Philosopher Nick Bostrom thinks there is a 20% chance that this universe is a simulation.

Rule #1 of racing: Protect your dome. Keeping the grey matter inside the skull has become a top priority in racing, and the helmet has evolved to meet that challenge. From the early days when helmets were little more than scarves to keep out dust, dirt, and exhaust, to modern impact-resistant lids of Kevlar and carbon fiber, helmets serve both form and function.
