Abstract: A droneboarding system is disclosed. The droneboarding system includes an unmanned aerial vehicle (drone) for pulling a droneboarder riding a board over a surface, a harness, a tow handle and a plurality of tension lines. Each tension line is attached to the drone and to either the tow handle or the harness. The tension lines are configured in a manner that provides mechanical control of the flight path of the drone. A remote power supply is adapted to be carried by the droneboarder. One of the tension line carries an electrical conductor from the remote power supply to the drone. The electrical conductor provides electrical power from the remote power supply to the drone.

Abstract: A tow bar assembly for use in a droneboarding system is disclosed. The tow bar assembly includes a shaft adapted to be connected to an unmanned aerial vehicle via at least one tension line. A multi-axis interface device is associated with the shaft and is adapted to receive flight control commands from a user holding onto the shaft. A flight controller is mounted to the shaft and is adapted to generate flight control signals for controlling the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the flight control commands received from the user via the multi-axis interface device. The flight controller is further adapted to wirelessly transmit the flight control signals to the unmanned aerial vehicle.
