Can someone Google the physics on how this works? Thanks in advance.

Just like wakeboarding but under water.

In my best Emily Litella voice: Wasn't wakeboarding ruled as torture and unconstitutional for marine life?

Thanks presently.

No problem....now what's all this I hear about people complaining about violins on television?!

This is so awesome. Dolphins are great.

Must show my boys this.

This made me so happy!

Haven't Googled anything, but I think it's like ground effect in airplanes and helicopters. The dolphin is pushing against a horizontal "column" of water the ship is pushing in front of it. Allows it to move along with little effort.

I would think that, to the dolphin, it feels like how a dog does with it's head out a car window. All the benefits of moving fast, with almost none of the effort.

So what you're saying is, the Dolphin is basically surfing without a surfboard on an underwater wave created at the bow of the boat.

I can live with that.

It's almost like he's dancing to music that we can never hear.

To follow up, I did show this to my boys and there were totally unimpressed, just asking when the good part was going to start.

Kids!

Apparently needs a frickin' laser on it's frickin' head.
