Abstract
An elongate float to walk on water with another such float is provided with a foot holder. The foot holder is mounted in a transverse direction such that the buoyancy force on the inside edge of the float relative to the other float is greater than the buoyancy force on the outside edge.
Claims10
An elongate float to be used with another such float for walking on water, the two floats being arranged longitudinally in a side by side relationship such that the floats have inside edges facing one another and corresponding outside edges, each float comprising:
- a foot holder for receiving a respective foot of a user, such foot holder being arranged in the float such that a mass distribution of the float is asymmetrical in a transverse direction to cause a greater buoyancy force between the inside edge and said foot holder than between the outside edge and said foot holder, when loaded by the user placing his foot in said foot holder.
