At the spot where I learned it was called "dredging". I've heard others call it "slogging", and others "putting".
What's it called where you are?
Is there an internationally recognised term for off the plane sailing on shortboards?

duempeln in German language (2nd and 3rd letter go in one, a u with two dots/points on top)

slogging is the English one I heard most often, then float n ride (but only when talking waveriding)

Yes offplane is boring sailing with shortboard, relaxed cruising with mid lenght and enjoyment on raceboard.

Maybe we should call it "East Coast Wavesailing"

Bogging. As in being bogged rather than other interpretations...

I've always called it ploughing since the 1980s, but I rarely (never?) hear others use it. Only one other has mentioned it in this thread.
