Kickstarter users were invited to fund a paddleboard

Many will envy the imagination of Curt Stevens: the inventor, enthusiast and private entrepreneur decided to cross paddleboarding with windsurfing.

Sounds unusual. It works like this: the board is accompanied by an oar with a sail attached to it. The hybrid allows the amateur paddleboarder to take a break from working with his hands - as soon as the athlete gets tired, he can unclip the paddle, unfold the sail and use it to move with the wind. If the speed isn't enough, you can start paddling again.

At the moment the project with the cheerful name DaSail Paddle is actively looking for help on Kickstarter. If yachtsmen and outdoor enthusiasts fund the gadget, it will be possible to buy it in August. The paddle-paddle will be sold together with the board. However, the public is not very active so far: only $400 out of $25 thousand required has been collected. There are still 25 days till the end of the donation period.
