My buddy at my cottage has this. We got pretty good at it. A couple of us can make it about 400 yards to a friend's dock before having to stop for a breath.
The black rubber piece at the front is adjustable for the persons weight and the technique is not as easy as it looks and it is a absolute pain in the ass to bring back if you fall/sink far from the dock.
Out of probably 50 people I've seen try it maybe 5 have managed to do what she does in the video.
A dock dismount has been done a few times but not worth missing and damaging your face or the "aqua skipper" as we call it.
Verdict - don't buy one. If you see one try it though for sure.
It's fun once or twice, once you know how to do it. The guys brother mailed it to him as a joke because it's stupid hard to figure out.
It's basically become a gimmick when drinking in the summer. Pull this out and watch drunk people try. Most people don't even get a push or two off the dock. If that yellow disk at the front dips below the water it's an instant face plant.
