http://www.grindtv.com/gear/germany-leading-electric-surfboard-race/ Minimal wake, top speed 20mph, no fumes, more quite. Why are we still burning petrol? BTW this seems like a novelty but fun on flat days or stuck inland.
Only 55 lbs & only $7,400......raddabingbrad, you're all over that quiver enhancer. Having said that (take it ez, bradley it was joking), the thing aobut electric power being environmentally 'clean' continues to mystify. It's cleaner only to one's vision & one's perception; to create all that electric power that humans plug their car or surfboard chargers does mandate a massive amount of electrical plant power generation (very dirty air & water as a result), transmitted through tremendously inefficient conduits (power lines). Anyways.
^ Instead of having thousands of combustible engines spitting fumes sporadically as with pwc's and autos which are basically unrestricted and "ok" because of catalytic converters, state and feds can cap emissions at power plants and overall impose an attainable limit on GHG. Greater accountability and more restrictive regulation.
