Wings for your Skis
By Rocky Thompson on October 23rd, 2009
You remember those flying water tubes you could pull behind powerful ski boats that were a lot of fun until a few people got killed an the U.S. outlawed them? The Woopy is kind of like that except that it hasn’t been made illegal yet. It’s part balloon, part paraglider, and it’s designed to extend jumps and ease landings. What about a big gust of wind that rips you off the top of the mountain? Well, there are a few bugs to work out. Don’t expect resorts to be renting these things anytime soon.
