HOBIE: Mirage Eclipse SUP Stepper

At first glance, the board from HOBIE looks like a wakeboard, but it's actually a SUP stepper. In Messe.TV we show you how the stand up paddling stepper works and what's so special about it! At first glance, it looks like a wakeboard, but the Mirage Eclipse is actually a stand-up paddle board with a stepper function. You have a handlebar in your hand with levers that look like brakes. In reality, however, you use them to operate the rudder and can therefore steer to the left or right.

Drive of the boat with HOBIE Mirage

The fins of the HOBIE Mirage drive are driven when you perform the step function, as in the gym or at home. This is a penguin drive. The movement is actually transmitted from the penguin and provides the propulsion.
