Multipurpose recreational device

摘要

The craft is made of a one or more piece construction having a rocker bow in the front so as to ride up on a wave without nosediving. The craft has a displacement hull so the rider can easily maneuver on any water covered surface; liquid or frozen. The craft contains a head cavity/recess in the bow for head protection and can additionally be used for emergency breathing while upside down in the water. The bow also contains vertical handles covered on top by integrated shoulder braces.
