Hydrofoil Water Scooter

Now this is what you can call scooter built for the wild waves. Alright, it is not intended for Hawaii but man, it just looks so rad. The Hydrofoil Water Scooter is a watercraft like no other. See, one does not use it like a jetski or any of those other contraptions wherein you glide like riding a bike.

You hop in this one. Seriously. That could be amusing for others or annoying to some. For us though, it is the former. See, this watercraft is utilized to perfection by jumping up and down on the platform. Of course, by jumping up and down, we meant it at the most gentle way possible. From there, the Hydrofoil Water Scooter can launch you to a speed of up to 17 mph.

Think it is big? Think again. At 26 pounds, it is as lightweight as they come. With a fiberglass frame, it becomes easier to transport and put in your pick-up trucks or vehicles. Moreover, it is tagged as virtually maintenance-free since it has no moving parts or loud engines that require fuel. Talk about less hassles.

Want another advantage to its credit? It actually provides a quite brisk cardiovascular workout. Also, it could be enjoyed by 12-year olds and above.
