Pronunciation: all-a-board-ing

Sentence: Allaboarding is a sport designed to add a little excitement to a morning commute. As with surfboarding, skateboarding, flowboarding and snowboarding; allaboarding is about the skill of combining balance and motion using public transportation. Specialties can include: metroboarding for subway specialists, retroboarding for those who still use trolleys, transboarding for bus passengers and railboarding for train riders. In the sport of allaboarding travelers must make an entire commute without support from handrails or straps during frequent stops, starts and acceleration. Points are deducted for bumping other passengers, hitting someone in the knee, eye or crotch with a purse, briefcase or elbow, not using deodorant or marinating oneself in a vile perfume or cologne.

Etymology: boarding: sport of balancing on a board in motion; aboard: the act of getting aboard a bus, train or ship -- "All aboard" is an expression heard often in old movies from the engineer of a train or the driver of a bus or trolley
