The joy my soul got just seeing those beautiful waters was wonderful. Oh how I'd like to be there.

usually I am not a water person, but sure enough it does like enticing.

I would expect no less for someone who has cat-like reflexes.

I hope your catisthenics training helped.

Thanks for "taking one or two" for the team, gato! More investigation is definitely warranted! More boat days, for all bad cats!

El Gato, we are even more kindred spirits than just the information shared in your phenomenal posts! I, too, am a lifelong board-sport enthusiast, but have yet to experience both the learning curve and joy of an eFoil. Thanks for sharing this post! And keep up the excellent work, please. You've helped so many of us to "awaken" with clarity and confidence.

I truly appreciate egm for daring this . I mean,sone cat has gotta do it and he's up to the challenge. I'm just glad that there were friends available to be a catalyst for catapulting egm into this new endeavor.

However... I saw no crinkly,shiny stuff.... e- foil? Was there no action packed vid of you batting this stuff around?

What's next? A catamaran?

Boat days good.

Weird toys--to each his own.

that does look like a blast.

Gato looks superbly acclimated with the new ride.

Bravo, Mister Foil Gato!

One might doubt that such proficiency was achieved so quickly with scant instruction or practice but…the picture tells the story. Without a doubt that’s one bad cat.

I was boating on Tahoe a couple summers ago, just off Mark Zuckerberg’s estate. A man was riding upright in a eFoil and I videotaped him on my phone. Not sure how to share it here...

it has to be easier than figure skating, right?

I was wondering if it was Zuckerberg…

How many fish does it slice per minute!? Looks like a wild ride.

IMHO, this is part of why you are such a trenchant critic of the stupidity of now. You know joy. To me, our current overlords are joyless scolds who seem to derive pleasure, not joy, from torturing us with the current thing. To know joy is to know there is an alternative, and to recognize the bad.

Facts, huh? Your facts are suspicious, Gato malo. I don’t trust those eyes. 🤔

And to think that el gato did all that and still looks dry in the photo. Thanks for doing science for the team!
