Watercraft manufacturer Hobie Cat Company, have designed their latest product, the Hobie Mirage Eclipse. The board looks like it combines the idea of a paddleboard with a fitness stairclimber machine to make the board move across the water.

The board is similar to a paddleboard, but it has handlebars like a bike, that provide extra stability and allow you to steer the board.

Unlike a regular paddleboard where you need a paddle, this board is designed with foot pedals, like on a stairclimber or elliptical trainer.

Underneath, the pedals connect to fins that propel you forward.

There’s even enough room for your dog, or if you’re someone that likes to stand-up fish, you can add a fishing accessory that lets you have a tackle box and rod holders.
