As far as I know the utility wild talent Ride the Blast doesn't give you the ability of sustained flight, though I could be wrong so please correct me if that is the case. In light of this fact, I was wondering how it interacts with Mobile Blast, as it simply doesn't "end" within the action you use it.
Ride the Blast states that: "You appear at the end of the blast’s path...," though for Mobile Blast I'm not sure if this would mean when the blast "ends" (when its "lasts until" conditions are met) or after the end of its initial manifestation ("You send... within 30ft").
If it is indeed the latter, that's the only question I have. If it is the former, how would this work out exactly? Ride the Blast states that "you transform yourself into your element or energy and send yourself along with your kinetic blast." The effect is also more akin to teleportation as it says you "appear" at the end of the blast, not that you "move" along its path (though it does say that you send yourself along with the blast).
With this in mind, I believe the wild talent assumes that, 1.) The blast is instantaneous, 2.) it is treated as if you don't travel the intervening space 3.) because of that you aren't subject to AoO while in transit, and 4.) you only stay "your element" for a negligible amount of time, so it doesn't rule out what that actually means besides where you end up.
It's more than a little bit confusing if you try to apply it to Mobile Blast...

Ride the Blast
Mobile Blast
Ride the Blast triggers on activation.
Mobile Blast can be sustained for a while.
All Ride the Blast will do with Mobile Blast will be to place you in or adjacent to the square the Mobile Blast begins in. On the next round, you can move the Mobile Blast, but you will not move from Ride the Blast.
Ride the Blast does not provide flight, but it can allow you to cover distance touching down once each round at the place your blast ended. If you have a Levitation effect active, it could look like flight.
