How long until there's a ski version?

Very impressive. It sure would be a different way to swerve around the buoys. It already does 57kph.

 

Is something like this an alternative future for slalom? Not a replacement. Different.

Thank you @ Horton for your post. I see it as just another reason for those barges to plow up the water even more than they do now.

I wasn't thinking side ways surfing/wakeboard stance around buoys but proper one foot in front of other stance on a self powered ski.

Maybe that'd be just feel too weird. Thinking about it now is slalom, trick & ski racing the only sports with single ski/board where the rider faces forward? Skateboard, surfing, snowboard, windsurf, foiling, etc are all sideways stance.

Anyways it looks like fun and if it removes some wake and surf boats from public lakes it's a good thing!

Ooh the "Triple Brittney"! Is that better or worse than a Panda? When are the t-shirts coming out?

If there was Brittney shirt I’d buy 5. One for each day of work

I think it’s creative. So many threads about the sport dying…it seems some innovative ideas might be welcomed.
