Human Powered Hydrofoils - When ingenuity meets pure human power. No matter if you live close to the sea or just have a small lake around, no matter if you got flat water and no wind or you got some waves - with a human powered hydrofoil there is always a way to have fun in the water and do some great watersports. Unlike surfing, kitesurfing, wakeboarding, sailing and windsurfing you are completly free of the need for wind, swell and engine powered boats. There are not many sports that will always require that much power from an athlete only to keep going. But at the same time have this addictive and sensational feeling of flying. Especially when riding the aquaskipper you can really imagine what a bird must feel when he makes these strong strokes with his wings. The kind of propulsion is also called flapping wing propulsion. Some other human powerd hydrofoils use a Propellar which is powered by a bicycle like chain and pedal setup. This is a great way to enjoy pacific oceans or caribean seas, ride the waves of hawai or maui.
