HYDROFOIL
The structure of the object bears similarities if we take into consideration a classic surfboard, with the difference that it can also be electric, moving at great speed, even reaching 30 knots (about 50 km/hour).
Immersed in the water, the board maintains its horizontal balance thanks to the vertical thrust created by it, so as to counteract gravity by lifting the hull.
Compared to standard surfing, the waves are not ridden, but rather flown over, remaining somehow suspended.
But how much does a board cost?
On the Amazon website you can find both just the component of the board, to be used as a possible "accessory" for a classic windsurf board, or actual hydrofoil models that already work.
However, we inform you that unfortunately the prices are not very cheap.
