Abstract
The present disclosure provides a flying water-ski device which enables a person to float in the air and fly in addition to gliding on the water in waterskiing. The flying water-ski device may be equipped with an airfoil having an outer form of a simplified triangle whose top faces toward the front. A flap section which has right and left flap axes may be placed at the back-end of said airfoil and right and left flaps, each of which can rotate around said right and left flap axes. A suspension support section may be suspended from said airfoil, and a harness section fixed to the suspension support section. A first tow rope may be coupled to the airfoil, and a second tow rope coupled to the harness section.
Claims15
A flying water-ski device to be used to float from the water surface and fly above when waterskiing, of the device comprising:
- (a) an airfoil having an airfoil frame with an outer form being a simplified triangle whose top faces forward and an airfoil cloth stretched on the said airfoil frame,
- (b) right and left flap axes set at a back-end of the airfoil and a flap section which has right and left flaps, each of which is configured to rotate around a corresponding one of the right and left flap axes,
- (c) a suspension support section suspended from the airfoil,
- (d) a harness section fixed to the suspension support section and having a plurality of belts for a player to wear,
- (e) a first tow rope coupled to the airfoil, and a second tow rope configured to be coupled to the harness section.
