After purchasing a Porsche item off of Ebay I browsed the sellers other items and discovered this:

Strangely I keep find myself being drawn back to this listing and keep thinking that it would be a load of fun....

Hairy exercisit Joe Wicks is well into powered surfboards and got me excited about them when listening to something he was on.

Sadly I live miles inland.

Reminds me of the original foil board invented by Laird Hamilton for big wave riding

Starting to see more of those in and around the Solent now, especially in anchorages like Osborne Bay

I don't think that you want to see me in my speedos!

Now having done a bit of research I didn't realise that there was so many of this type of thing around. Anyway, my son has talked me out of it.

I have had an efoil for a year now, it was a bit challenging to start with, brilliant machine, amazing technology.
