[0001]This application claims the benefit of Provisional Application No. 60/854,669, filed Oct. 27, 2006. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002]1. Field of the Invention [0003]This invention relates to recreational water sports, and more particularly, to an aquatic sport assembly of improved versatility and facile usage. [0004]2. Description of the Prior Art [0005]Water surfing has evolved from body surfing without any floatation device through the use of surf boards of elongated lengths, generally of a length greater than the height of the user or surfer. Accordingly, the user is propelled by the force of a wave moving towards the shore. Body surfing without any floatation device is of limited maneuverability and may expose the user to some hazards since once in motion the user is somewhat limited in response other than attempting to roll out before coming to close to the shore. [0006]The use of a surf board permits substantial maneuverability with a more satisfactory result as well as facile return to a starting point and permitting resting as well as better visualization of incoming waves. While the use of elongated surf boards have found extensive use, surf boards of smaller length or of torsodial dimensions, i.e. of length and width corresponding to dimensions of a torso have found usage, such as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,886,476 to Brocone et al. including a torso receiving recess to provide enhanced maneuverability. [0007]Velocity of a surf board is a function of the area of the contacting surface with water defining a resistance factor with respect to such surf board. A variable area of the contacting surface with water would result in potentially improved versatility and maneuverability to enhance user experience. [0008]As a spin off from surfboarding, additional surfing sports have evolved, such as body boards, which are lighter, and cheaper than a surfboard, and are ridden by the user in a prone position with the user's torso resting on the board. Body boards further evolved into boogie boards and other surfing apparatus which allow the user to skim along the thin film of water which recede from the beach after the wave had broken. OBJECTS OF THE PRESENT INVENTION [0009]An object of the present invention is to provide an aquatic sports assembly having diverse areas of contacting surface with water. [0010]Still another object of the present invention is to provide an aquatic sports assembly having diverse area of contacting surfaces with water providing diverse usage velocities. [0011]Yet another object of the present invention is to provide an aquatic sports assembly having diverse areas of contacting surface with water permitting of enhanced surfing experiences. SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION [0012]These and other objects of the present invention are achieved by an aquatic sports assembly comprised of a body board member of torsodial dimension and paralleledly-disposed ski-like runner members spaced-apart and mounted to the body board member in paralleled relationship to the longitudinal axis of the body board member.
