This is a tubes handboard I tried before I made the Tubes Paipo. Most of the time when I have something I want to try, I will make a handboard first, ride it, modify it if necessary, and then enlarge the design to make a full scale Paipo. - Roger Wayland |

On this hydro I wanted to see if I could use water induction through the reverse Y boxes to give lift to the hydro. On the front of the induction boxes, I addes a foiled piece to encourage lift. I have not had the opportunity to get this one in the water yet. This also uses the new Paipo design (pictures of this [outline] in handboard, paipo, and now Hydro Paipo versions elsewhere). -Roger Wayland |
