先日、湘南海岸で、電動モーターサーフィンなるものに乗ってみました。

左手にモーターのアクセルがあり、スピードが上がると中座後、テイクオフ。

なかなか面白い。

とりあえず立って乗るところまでやってみましたが、本当はもう少し前に体重をかけないと速度が上がらないんですよね。

若い頃に比べて体重も重くなり、ショートボードに乗ることが出来なくなりましたが、これなら行けるのかもしれません。

もう少し小脳習熟したいなあ。

The other day, I tried electric motor surfing at Shonan Beach for the first time.

The board is controlled by a throttle in your left hand. As you squeeze the accelerator and build up speed, the board lifts onto the surface and you take off. It was surprisingly fun.

I managed to get to my feet and ride, but I soon realized that I need to shift my weight a little farther forward to gain more speed.

I’ve put on some weight since I was younger, and I can no longer ride a traditional shortboard. But this might just be the way back onto the water.

Now I’d like to spend a little more time training my cerebellum—or, in other words, letting my body learn the movements until they become second nature.
