Training Device for Hydrofoil Watercraft and Methods of Use Thereof
A training hydrofoil system for connection with a watercraft comprises a first wing including at least one adjustable surface and a second wing including at least one adjustable portion. The system further includes a fuselage extending longitudinally and the first and second wing connected to the fuselage and extending latitudinally relative to the fuselage, the fuselage including an attachment feature for attaching to the watercraft. The system further includes an electronic control unit capable of actuating at least one of the adjustable surface and adjustable portion to modify a course of the watercraft, and a power source. Both the power source and the electronic control unit are positioned in the fuselage.
Steerable hydrofoil watercraft
A steering system for a hydrofoil watercraft, wherein a user may ride in a seated, prone, kneeling, or standing position while steering the watercraft without the use of his or her bodyweight. Vertical elevation, left and right roll, and longitudinal direction control of the watercraft is accomplished via steering, resulting in movement of the control surfaces (fins) on the hydrofoil, thus eliminating the need for weight shifting on the flotation device. An electronic remote and/or mounted joystick steering system can be operated either electronically or through direct mechanical linkage to control the direction of the watercraft. The steering system can include an unmanned remote controlled drone hydrofoil watercraft that can be operated remotely.

WATER SKI FIN
A water ski fin comprising a planar body and a plurality of chevrons. The planar body may have a top end, a convex leading edge, and a trailing edge. The mounting elements on the top end may mount the fin on a tail of a water ski. A bottom may connect the leading edge to the trailing edge. A plurality of chevrons may have alternating crests and troughs positioned in the trailing edge.
Paddle Board
A paddle board, comprising a paddle board body (10) comprising an upper surface (11) and a lower surface (11a), wherein the lower surface of the paddle board body is a surface which comes into contact with the water, the upper surface of the paddle board body comprises a first region (11) and a second region (12). In the direction from the upper surface to the lower surface, the second region is lower than the first region, wherein the first region can be for the user to stand and the second region can be for user to sit. By means of the paddle board, the user can paddle when standing on the paddle board, and can also paddle when sitting on the paddle board, such that the user experience is good.

HYDROFOILING BOARD
A hydrofoiling watercraft including a board for supporting a user includes a plurality of masts extending downwardly to connect one or more hydrofoil wings to the board. Examples of the watercraft include a fuselage mounted to each mast wherein a forward portion of each fuselage extends toward a direction of travel for the watercraft. A hydrofoil wing is mounted to the forward portion of each fuselage. A tail wing may be mounted to a rearward portion of the respective fuselages.
Fin mount for an inflatable watercraft
A fin mount for an inflatable watercraft is an apparatus used as a universal fin box that connects a variety of fins. The apparatus includes a clamp and a fin. The clamp mounts the fin into a fin box-receiving hole of an inflatable watercraft. The clamp includes a lower press, an upper press, and a length-adjustable fastener. The lower press and the upper press seal the fin box-receiving hole. The lower press and the upper press tighten together with the length-adjustable fastener. The lower press and the upper press tensionably tether to each other by the length-adjustable fastener. The apparatus further includes a fin-attachment mechanism that secures the fin into the lower press. The fin removably attaches into a fin-receiving slot of the lower press. The apparatus further includes a plurality of lower counterforts and a plurality of upper counterforts which structurally reinforce the lower press and the upper press.
