FCS - 3d, wonder what would happen

Further to recent discussions about hydrofoils, Wonder what would happen -, if anything - if you attached one of these, if you could, to the bottom of a bodyboard ?

batboard has attached this image:

I remember that discussion, some guy from hawaii or something tried it, made his own boards. For a start if you attached one of them, i reckon you would need a bigger sized board and a bit of speed, that board would actually propbably float above the water with the hydrofoil underwater, but actually riding a wave and doing tricks would be funny to watch..if it would even work. Imagine drop knee with a hydrofoil bodyboard.

Hehe. Do you mean hydrofoil fins or stand up surfboard style fins? What i can't stand is these people that buy bodyboards with 2 surfboard style fins on the bottom, or even worse buy them to put on it.
