    Extraordinary ! A lot of power and speed, and little weight, required to make that work. Seemed to be doing at least 50 mph when it hit the lake, I wonder just how wide a body of water it could have covered if put to the test.

    I used to do this all the time with my ATV as a teen ager. Not 400 ft, but 70 ft no problem. I've done the same things many times in the spring to about 40 ft with my snowboard. Very fun! More challenging on the snowboard.
