Surfing with a motor is still surfing, guys

hydroglider.jpgWho says you need waves to surf? I mean, beyond the laws and physics and stuff. Sure, you won't be going anywhere on still water with a normal surfboard, but a normal surf board isn't loaded up with an engine and propeller. The Hydroglider, on the other hand, totally is.

Not only does it get you moving, but it does so with a "wing that lifts the surfboard and you up out of the water, greatly reducing drag and allowing you to achieve speeds up to an exhilarating 25 miles per hour." You know what, that actually sounds pretty badass, I'm not gonna lie. Sure, it might not be pure surfing, but pure surfing doesn't shoot you along flat water at 25 mph, now does it?
