WINDSURF

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “WINDSURF” was once registered on the Principal Register but is now dead because the registrant, GOLD BOND ICE CREAM, INC., failed to file a Section 8 declaration in 1996. The mark covered frozen confection goods in class 030. A new name that uses “WINDSURF” for frozen confection or similar food items would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated categories would be farther from the specific scope shown. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only indicates that the owner no longer holds enforceable rights on the Principal Register for those goods. The prosecution history shows a straightforward path from application to publication to registration, with no supplemental register steps. No enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk if the new use involves frozen confection or closely related food products.
