Embodiment Construction

[0018]As discussed above, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to water skis and more particularly to a water ski system as used to improve the water ski system.

[0019]Generally, the present invention utilizes a set of boards to enable a user to move on the surface of water in a similar motion as with a cross country ski. It provides a cross ocean ski that allows for buoyancy, with a fixed fin for stabilization and one or more paddles that rotate on a hinge. This allows users to push water backwards when moving their legs backwards in order to move forward in the water using their legs. It enables the user to move both legs freely to move easily in any direction on the water.

[0020]The present invention affords users the ability to approach waves and catch them in a surf-like manner, but while using movements similar to skiing, as opposed to conventional surfing. Water ski system offers a set of cross-country like skis designed to function on water. The skis are comprised of a...

Abstract

A water ski system which includes two essentially identical assemblies each assembly including a buoyant ski having a top surface, a bottom surface, a front, and a back configured to float on water. Each buoyant ski includes a pivoting paddle located on the bottom surface of the buoyant ski configured to deploy in a backwards motion and retract in a forward motion against a force of water in a motion similar to cross-country skiing. The device propels a user across water when manipulated. Each buoyant ski has a foot mount and a toe of a boot pivotally affixed to the top surface of the buoyant ski.
