Zero resistance surfboard

Abstract

I have created a proto-type invention for use on the surface water, that consists of a standard 7′6″ surfboard used to ride ocean waves. The materials I used to create a reduced resistance surfboard consist of small quartz stones and casting resin. I have measured the top-side resistance of the surfboard with the bottom textured side. The performance equates to an increase of 48% of the surfboards ability to move on the water. By using weights, placed in a container and tied to a length of rope draped over a pole, and with the other end of the rope attached to the surfboard, and allowing the surfboard to freely drift in a consistent river current until, by adding additional weights into the container, the rope stopped moving over the pole, and comparing the pound weight balance point of one side to the other, I have concluded that my invention has merit.

1 . I, Pamela Elizabeth Dalton claim as my invention the textured bottom surfboard, that I have titled the “zero resistance surfboard” for use on the surface of water in the sport of surfing, or riding ocean waves: 
 I believe that the improved movement, and enhanced performance of the surfboard on the surface of water is my sole idea, and that the protections of a granted patent of my invention of the embedding of a raised textured surface on the water contact areas of surface water sporting equipment should be granted to me for further development of a product with commercial potential.
