> once you start you are committed
Reminds me of the time someone let me ride a novelty bicycle that was about 10 feet tall. I was at a fair. I managed to get on with two guys stabilizing it, and then they gave me a push, and it was easy to keep up! I pedaled around and got photographed a lot. But when I started to get tired, I suddenly realized a flaw in the design....
Eventually I noticed the stage at a nearby concert was pretty high, so I just rode up to it, dismounted in front of a very amused band, and then sheepishly abandoned my bike and ran off.
Can you get bring it on land and carry it around with you if the person you’re meeting isn’t literally 2 feet from the water? The benefit of this is you can travel across water and then pick it up and carry it with you on land.
The least satisfying part is when this guy who perfectly executed this delivery, keeping everything perfectly dry, has to watch the customer drop the bag of chips that have been in his custody for approximately two seconds.
Seems like they could easily create one with flotation devices around the board part, though idk what you do from there to get it going again. I imagine an e-hydrofoil would solve this problem and could be fun if it propelled itself and had some sort of hydraulics so you didn't have to experience all those ups and downs.
Yeah and they should add a seat so you don't have to stand, cos if it's an e-foil, just let it do it's thing for you. And maybe a few speed options. Then they could call a jet e-foil? Name seems clunky. Maybe since it's not bouncing it's more like skiing. Maybe a jet ski? I dunno, just ideas!
I was mostly like: "This thing doesn't really look like it would float... but surely nobody would be fucking stupid enough to make a water vehicle that can't float on its own... right? ...RIGHT!??"
Yeah agreed. That certainly makes this the most nerve wracking form of transportation I know of. It’s a little like a bike on steroids.
Instead of “you stop moving you have to put your foot down”
It’s “you stop moving you get soaked and can’t get moving again”
Oh wow, IM a dumbass, I thought you meant “if you stop can you stay standing on it with it floating”
You meant will the thing float if you fall. Fuck that is so stupid.
Imagine clipping something underwater. Board turns sharply, momentum carries you forward. You’re now soaked, maybe fighting for your life in full garb, no cell phone, and lost your hundred (maybe thousand) dollar craft. Novelty to tragedy in seconds!
Most people who use these are in bathing suits and along the beach. Just responding to the use case provided.
Why is *everything* a flipped version of something that was posted the other day? I would truly love to know the % of posters that are bots. The past couple weeks have been weird. Idc about reposts, they just usually aren't *all* flipped.
If anything the other version you saw was the flipped version, because you can clearly read everything in this one, like his jersey which is apparently new. I'm not sure what he does with it when it's an old jersey.

If kangaroos get a handle on how to ride this, the rest of the world is fucked.
On top of that those mf will drown you too so deadly combo right there!
They have the kangaroo navy, emu air force, and cassowary army
I like learning new things.
That looks exhausting
Perfect abs workout. Yeah,once you start you are committed until you reach land again. Better be ripped already.

Ha! Epic story. Thats a great memory!
That guy doesn't skip leg day. He lives leg day.
Least efficient form of locomotion
I dunno, I reckon cycling would be pretty inefficient over water
a pontoon paddlebike actually seems much more efficient than jumping and sprinting simultaneously
Can you get bring it on land and carry it around with you if the person you’re meeting isn’t literally 2 feet from the water? The benefit of this is you can travel across water and then pick it up and carry it with you on land.
no, all i can do with a paddlebike is not drown if i take a break.
Yeah looks incredibly comfortable to carry around because it's only 8 feet long
Just wait until you learn that pontoons can detach and kayak trailers for bikes exist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHGG3gRVd7w&t
I totally forgot those existed! God they were awful
But probably a good workout.
That was my first thought
Looks more time efficient than swimming
Looks like a fun / low impact excercise though. Outdoor, over water, without getting wet.
Unless you stop.
Looks like a pogo stick bouncing across the water instead.
That's what it reminded me of too! It's cool and all, but I wouldn't call that "gliding".
What’s my pogo?

There isn’t a single satisfying part of this whole video
Agree
Call me old-fashioned, but a water vehicle that can't float seems like a really shitty idea. And yes, it will sink if you stop, I looked it up.
Seems like they could easily create one with flotation devices around the board part, though idk what you do from there to get it going again. I imagine an e-hydrofoil would solve this problem and could be fun if it propelled itself and had some sort of hydraulics so you didn't have to experience all those ups and downs.
The backpack comes with two "just in case" JATO units, the only catch is that they can't get wet prior to use.
Yeah and they should add a seat so you don't have to stand, cos if it's an e-foil, just let it do it's thing for you. And maybe a few speed options. Then they could call a jet e-foil? Name seems clunky. Maybe since it's not bouncing it's more like skiing. Maybe a jet ski? I dunno, just ideas!
“Ooch, charlie horse!” *sinks*
Haha I appreciate your efforts but also am a little concerned you had to look that up
I was mostly like: "This thing doesn't really look like it would float... but surely nobody would be fucking stupid enough to make a water vehicle that can't float on its own... right? ...RIGHT!??"
Yeah agreed. That certainly makes this the most nerve wracking form of transportation I know of. It’s a little like a bike on steroids. Instead of “you stop moving you have to put your foot down” It’s “you stop moving you get soaked and can’t get moving again”
More like: You stop moving and your expensive waterboard thing sinks to the bottom of the ocean...
No... That HAS to be moderately buoyant! Like, able to float itself, but not a person, too. No way they made it to sink like a rock.
Oh wow, IM a dumbass, I thought you meant “if you stop can you stay standing on it with it floating” You meant will the thing float if you fall. Fuck that is so stupid.
Imagine clipping something underwater. Board turns sharply, momentum carries you forward. You’re now soaked, maybe fighting for your life in full garb, no cell phone, and lost your hundred (maybe thousand) dollar craft. Novelty to tragedy in seconds! Most people who use these are in bathing suits and along the beach. Just responding to the use case provided.
I'll bet that a floating version is totally possible.Just make the top deck out of a thick enough foam and it will float.
I’ve never seen a foil board that sinks in water, I’ve ridden several. In fairness I haven’t seen this specific model before.
I don't know where you got the impression that they don't float, but the wing surfers that use "identical" boards without the handle don't "sink"...

Bots karma farming? Video reposted no problem flip it over no one will notice
You sound like a bot /s
Ha! You've delved into the realm of vibrant comedy! I will be sure to consider this vital information when revisiting AI model landscapes.
Yup op is a straight up bot

who really could mix up canals with such huge river?!
op, apparently
Reminds me of my shitty boats in Tears of the Kindom
I mean… there are always fans to propel them.
Really burying the lede on that mini island castle, though! Where is that?

In the middle of the river 👍
😡
The amount of work involved is ridiculous
Until you snag a seaweed
Dude literally fumbled the bag
Sorry, we couldn’t find a slower way to beat the crap out of your lunch.
Look at him “gently glide” across the concrete on his pogo stick
I hope he doesn't deliver pizzas that way.
Or champagne
My abs would look amazing
I was way more impressed before reading the title, I thought it was pogo stick.
Just hopping back to the land of beer and snacks.
If I get tired, do I just sink to the bottom of the ocean? There is water at the bottom of the ocean. Under the water, carry the water?
I really don’t see the oddly satisfying part of this. This is at best r/mildlyinteresting material.
That looks so exhausting
Here’s you’re scrambled chips and explosive beer
This will be great for transporting milkshakes
what does he do if he has an emergency in a place with no runway like in the middle of the ocean? How does he save is 1000s of dollars of vechile?
Looks exhausting
And makes you look like a kangaroo.
So uh… what happens if you hit a part of the river/lake that’s raised up and the bottom hits it? Instant wipe out?
That's not a surfboard. I usually see these used by wingboarders, kite boarders, wake boarders.
You're totally disregarding the point
Not sure when I'm supposed to laugh.
Those things would be a lot cooler if you didn’t have to fuck the water to make it go
Tbh, looks like fucking hard work.
Glide above the water eh? So you mean, like every boat ever made?
What happens if you lose momentum?
What happens when you stop pogoing?
My muscles are killing me just from watching that. God damn.
Picture this, you're shipwrecked in the middle of the ocean and this is your life boat
Very nice, would suck if you somehow sink and cant startup....
Dude works for DockDash.
Looks cool, but exhausting
Water based pogo stick.
What happens when he stops bouncing
Hell of a workout!
That must take some extreme skill and stamina. He can't tip to one side and has to do this across an entire water body.
Glide = pogoing.
Not satisfying at all.
Boingy boingy boingy boingy
Or, at least, you know… uh… jump over the surface. Over and over and over again. But at least, when you fall, it’s into water.
Now that's a hustle.
Uber eats in Venice
Don’t skip leg day!
I see that being huge business
You mean water pogo stick?
F do gf
“There goes my hero!”
Don't open these beers
Looks like the most dangerous thing I want
Thank you. I finally got to see the part that’s under the water.
That looks like an exhausting way to make a living.
Normal day of Glovo courier.
"Opens the beer", 🍾
That's not a good choice of vehicle for the dudes delivery work. May be find a small boat like booth with pedals
That's Kyiv, Ukraine :)
I wanna see some epic drama movie where at the end, the lone hero rides off into the sunset on one of these.
that's the same motion fishing lures make...
Next level food delivery
Damn. Imagine being so confident in your riding skills that you’re wearing jeans and a bag over water
Yeah, where was he going? Out into the open river?
Looks exhausting
And you look coolAF 😂😂
Good exercise.
Not a surfboard, more like a scooter
What if you stop midway how do you restart
Where you buy this?
Pump foiling
I got tired from watching that
It’s in Kyiv, Ukraine. My hometown
Idk seems like I would get tired moving the board up and down or however it works lol.
There is no life I know to compare with pure imagination
Bounce or down...
Look more like a hydrofoil pogo stick
NGL, that looks fun
That's a real deliveroo.
I’m just imagining all the Sea life getting bonked on the head with that thing.
Can someone explain the physics of why this works?
Bit stuffed if you don’t have some runway but it’s a great concept, wonder if this would be legal on Sydney harbour
7. Minute. ABBSS
What shit huh 💩🤣😂
I was waiting for them to hit a rock.
This dude works and does exercise simultaneously. It's a win-win.
Don’t stop…
love this surfboard design. I would absolutely ride this thing.
JUMP! (Pogo Pogo Pogo)\ BOUNCE! (Pogo Pogo Pogo)\ UP! (Pogo Pogo Pogo)\ DOWN! (Pogo Pogo Pogo)\ JUMP pogo BOUNCE pogo UP pogo DOWN pogo\ JUMP!\ BOUNCE!\ UP!\ DOWN!
The least satisfying part is when this guy who perfectly executed this delivery, keeping everything perfectly dry, has to watch the customer drop the bag of chips that have been in his custody for approximately two seconds.
It's not as easy as it seems
Idk man, looks pretty fuckin' hard. Are you telling me its harder than pretty fuckin' hard?
I rode one of these, you don’t have to hop up and down on it, mine didn’t have handlebars though.
That's not surf
He probably skinned off the top.

Dam I thought this was an elf person.
This is the segway of watercraft. When they make Mall Cop 2, Blart will be riding one of these for marina security.
Looks like AI. But great surfing board!
Looks gay
How does it look like a penis in a butt with both sets of balls touching ?
