Trying to ride the Hydrofoil Water Scooter

[nadsburger]

does it tire you out once you're up and going? or is it comparable levels of effort to running?

[creighsinger04]

@nadsburger it tires you pretty quickly. You have to be pretty in shape to do it

[DutchManticore]

Well the thing is that you have to give it forward momentum as well, when you're 'launching'.

You can keep the forward momentum going, but it's very hard to get initial momentum when you're already in the water due to it's density, or viscosity.

What i'd like to see is how you got it out the water back to dry land!! bet that wasnt easy.
