Let’s go surfing now, everybody’s learning how: Surfboard with built-in Radio / GPS

Some of you out there would be out at the beach hitting the waves right now if it wasn’t for one thing. You are scared shitless of drowning! While this surfboard with a special built-in radio and GPS tide warning system can’t perform CPR on you (yet), the board could still save you a few brain cells and high medical bills.

The specially made surfboard not only lets fellow surfers interact with each other, sharing information about waves and tides, but also integrates a GPS system that can warn surfers against potentially dangerous conditions. The board could also be used to pinpoint the location of an injured surfer.
