Definitions

  • This invention relates to devices which enable a person to walk, ski or skate on a body of water,as for example, a lake,bay,river, canal,sea or ocean.
  • One object of the present invention is to provide a device which can be worn on each foot of a person and can be used to walk on water.
  • the invention on its most general terms comprises an elongated lightweight body which can float on water and can be formed
  • Water-resistant materials such as foamed- plastic such as polystyrene foamor polyester foam or naturally- occuring water-resistant materials which can float in water as for example, cork.on the top surface of the floatable body are means for inserting or attaching the foot of the person.
  • the bottom surface which is immersed in the the water has a front means preferably positioned below the toe portion of, the foot and a rear means preferably positioneed rearwardof the heel portion of the foot for resisting rearward propulsion
  • the front means could comprise a normally verticallypositioned me mb er which pivots only to the rear.
  • This means can also be ⁇ a flap extending across the floatable body or rearwardly facing ⁇ pockets,or a combination of flaps and pockets.
  • the rear means is similar to the front means and is preferably a marge central pocket which permits forward motion but resists rearward motion when filled with water.
  • the rearmeans can also have a large flap extending acrose the floatable body.
  • stabilization fins can be providedon the lower surface at each corner and these can also be provided with ⁇ rearwardly-facing pockets to restrain rearward motion
  • Propulsion is accomplished by manipulating floatable sticks or rods so as to get forward propulsion.
  • Apreferred form of such propelling stick is an elongated rod having a floating member on the water and a small rudder member below the water.
  • the person uses one propelling stick in each hand to obtain initial mntion of the floating bodies attached to his feet.
  • the person at'no time has his feet immersed in the water and is thus literally walking on water
  • the invention is also suitable for being pulled so as to skate-or ski on the water.
  • While the preferred form of the invention for the purpose of walking on the water is to have- an elongated floating member to which the foot is attached, other shapes such as oval or square can be used.
  • the invention can also be used in combined- form to form a catamaran sailing boat or with a pliable mast and sail to-form a surf boat.
  • Wheels can also be added with a water propeller.
  • each floatable member is quite light as for example, 6 pounds(3..kg)in weight
  • a pair of water-resistant, elongated foam plastic 9 and 10 for the left-and right foot respectively of the person utilizing the invention Each floatable body 9 and sits in the water with the upper surface clear of the water so that the feet inserted into the foot supports 14 and 15 do not get wet.
  • each floatable body 9 and 10 has a front restraining means 13 wich comprises in this instance a pair of normally vertical but rearwadly pivotable flap members 13 located below the toe portion of the foot, and registering rearward facing pockets 13 a in Stabilization fins 1Oa.
  • Rearward of the heel portion of the foot and on the lower surface of the body is a pocket II in which the water is allowed to fill when the device is first placed into the water.
  • The-particular propelling rod 16 illustrated in the drawings has handle portion 17, a relatively large floating member 18, and below the surface rudder 19.
