“Bellyak is a noun — a type of boat and a sport. The verb is to bellyak or to go bellyaking, or bodyboating. It is an adjective synonymous with fun, as in: ‘Adam Masters has a bellyaching lifestyle,'” the Asheville Citizen-Times‘ Karen Chavez reports in “Riding the Bellyak wave
Asheville entrepreneurs create new boat, new sport.”
“Set to hit the Asheville and worldwide market this month, the Bellyak is a kayak that you ride on your belly.”
