The Kyoshos were decent, but to really tear it up you had to mod them. I have a couple gathering dust in the Ponohouse garage. Bigger brushless motors, lipo battery, better prop and rudder and 'da bull boardies.

Fun for a while. Maybe I should make one autonomous. 

You should make a little paddle to put in his hands and then make us a video!  The world's first RC SUP surfer!

Didn't Chan glue a paddle on one long ago? I know somebody did.

 Why hasn't anybody replaced the surfer with a Go-Pro?

 Bingo!

Damn that's a good idea....1st person view for the RC controller too with the GoPro bluetooth.

Interesting idea.  That would make a 1ft wave seem like a DOH wave.
