Water sports device

A water sports device comprising:

• a floating body;
• a foil device;
• a retaining device securing the floating body with the foil device;
• at least one propulsion device which has at least one motor, wherein the at least one propulsion device can be controlled by a control unit and which is provided for propelling the water sports device;
• wherein the foil device, arranged on a link of the retaining device, has one or more foils and the foil device can be transferred via the retaining device from a resting and/or starting position close to the floating body into an operating position below the floating body, wherein the floating body in the operating position and during a forward movement can be moved by an uplift force produced by the foil device into a position in which it is distant from a water surface
• wherein a propulsion energy accumulator also forming an outer contour of the water sports device is removably secured to the rest of the water sports device.

A water sports device comprising:

• a floating body:
• a foil device;
• a retaining device securing the floating body with the foil device, the retaining device comprising a drive, by which the foil device can be moved from a resting and/or starting position into the operating position and/or from the operating position into the resting and/or starting position;
• at least one propulsion device which has at least one motor, wherein the at least one propulsion device can be controlled by a control unit and which is provided for propelling the water sports device;
• wherein the foil device, arranged on a link of the retaining device, has one or more foils and the foil device can be transferred via the retaining device from a resting and/or starting position close to the floating body into an operating position below the floating body,
• wherein the floating body in the operating position and during a forward movement can be moved by an uplift force produced by the foil device into a position in which it is distant from a water surface;
• wherein the drive comprises an energy accumulator, wherein the energy accumulator having at least one spring can be tensioned.
