My roommate says those things are illegal in the U.S. Not sure if that's true, but I'd probably kill myself on one.

I've seen one of those at my local fishing store sucks if they did make it illegal, seeing if you could master it, it would be so much fun, I however would Love to try but never see myself straping onto this thing and taking flight...looks like alot of fun tho.

Na, They use them all the time here in Michigan...
#1 - Very easy to just tear them apart - not very rigid
#2 - You need a boat with MAJOR power - a lake with huge strait aways.
#3 - Not fall friendly.

Doesn't look all that appealing to me. And why would they be illegal?

no the companies stop producing them, ppl where going way to fast and much higher then then the instructions said they should, then when ppl get hurt they tried to sue them, and they lost. so they stopped making them.
unless they someone how tighten up the legal part of them, im pretty sure there still illegal
