Tombstoning can refer to:
Tombstoning - A term in the chip soldering industry describing a situation wherein a soldering defect causes a chip component to stand up on end (like a tombstone), leaving one end soldered to the board and the other end free. It is caused during the reflow soldering process where non-uniform melting causes an unbalanced force to be applied to the chip from the solder.
Tombstoning - The extreme sport of diving off rocks and cliff faces into the sea.
Tombstoning - Using dead peoples' names for committing financial fraud and identity theft.
Tombstoning - A WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) process that marks records for deletion. The marks are also replicated to other WINS servers to prevent tombstoned (but not deleted) records from being propagated.
Tombstoning - Occurs when a surfer is so deep below the surface that his leash has fully outstretched. The surfer's weight pulling down props up the board at water level like a tombstone.
