Flowboarding

One of my favorite hobbies is Flowboarding. Flowboarding is a board sport that is performed on an artifical "wave" of water called a Flowrider®. A Flowrider® produces a sheet of water across a trampoline-like rubber canvas at around 30-35 miles per hour. It began in the 80's and it's getting very popular. It combines elements of Surfing, Wakeboarding, Skateboarding, Skimboarding, and Snowboarding.

I'm personally able to carve, spin, do pop-shuvits, 360 shuvits, 360 bigspins (shuvits while spinning), fastplants, and kickflips.

Are there any other flowboarders out there or is there anyone who's ever been on a Flowrider®? If you've never been on one, i highly suggest you try it. It is really fun!

That looks like a BLAST!

It is! Haha it's my favorite hobby. I've been doing it for 2 years and im already doing pro-level tricks :D

I tried this when I went on vacation once, it's pretty cool. I never did tricks cause it was my first time but I'd definetly do it again

I have tried it too and the flow just trip me over every time I touched it :p

I've been to a few competitions before, and i've always been in the top 3 :D

Its a sport that many people underestimate. All the pros make it look really easy, because they've been doing it for years.

I've been Casterboarding for about 6 years now
This video makes me want to try Flowboarding.

Where do i go to try one of these?

I sent my nephew a groupon to try this out. I've seen it but was always afraid it would rip down my bikini bottoms? LOL.

Lmao i've seen bikini bottoms rip off, i've seen mens shorts fly off when they're on a body board (not a pretty sight). That's why wearing a long shirt over loose clothing is a good idea xD

Literally looks like endless fun
