Solo has been around for over fifteen years. I was involved on the initial prototyping of the control keypad! Pretty cool...

Then along came kite boarding, and you are now able to "wakeboard" behind the power of a kite all by yourself and control it with a bar!  |

Pretty nifty really, just can't imagine paying 17k for the privilege!
Too bad it's not gone mainstream and driven the cost of production down. |

Have you ever tried water skiing or wake boarding behind a full sized waverunner? It is all sorts of weird. I can pull the backend of those machines back and forth with each turn. I can't imagine this little thing having enough mass to pull steadily and the wake has got to be schooper small! |
