The Cannes Boat Show saw a very unique water toy last week that is targeted at the Baller Boys called the EXO from French company EXOCONCEPT. If you are one who loves the pure fun and the adrenalin rush that jet skiing brings, the EXO will most likely excite you. The EXO is almost like an electric Jet Ski, the only difference being that the rider lies down on top of the watercraft in a prone position rather than in a seated position.

Baller Guys, get ready for a really cool water sport, some hard hitting action and a huge adrenalin rush this summer with an awesome outdoor recreational device called the Jetlev-Flyer. Although this concept has been around since 2009, the company behind the device – Jetlev Technologies in collaboration with MS Watersports GmbH is finally ready to market the product. So what’s on offer?Read the rest of this entry »
One look at this picture & you’re probably thinking what I’m thinking: that’s gotta be the best way to freak out swimmers at your local beach. The Seabreacher X is a personal mini-submarine that can launch itself out of the water when it surfaces.
The mini-sub can travel at 25mph underwater & 50mph on the surface, thanks to a 260 horsepower engine that emits a nice growl when you surface rapidly. Besides diving & launching a few feet in the air when it surfaces, you can also roll the sub underwater if you feel like getting a closer look at the marine life through the canopy, instead of the viewport at your feet.
Boys on their quads will no longer have to stop at the edge of the water and wish they had a jet ski instead. At the flick of a switch the Gibbs Quadski, by the new amphibian Gibbs Technologies, makes the crossover from land to water in about 5 seconds. This full on recreational vehicle is a quad bike and a jet ski in one funky looking speed machine. Powered by a 140 BHP petrol driven engine, this cool amphibian is able to travel at 50mph on land and water. On entering water the wheels retract into the body of the vehicle to ensure a smooth transition. Read the rest of this entry »
We’re not sure whether our favorite part about WaterCar’s Python is the ability to go from land to water and back again seamlessly, or if it’s the easiest way to pick up girls on the water (see the video). WaterCar originally released a 2002 Convertible Chevrolet Camero in 2006 that had similar features to the Python and has now expanded to the Gator, a water-ready jeep, and the larger Python.
The Python is the world’s fastest amphibious vehicle clocking in at over 100mph on land and 60mph on water. It acheives these speeds from your choice of Corvette V8 engines ranging from the LS1 up through GM’s latest 6.2 liter suprecharged LS9 which propells the Corvette ZR1 along with 640hp. By water propulsion is acheived through a Dominator Jet Drive. Going from car to boat is easy with the driver merely putting the transmission in neutral, engaging the jet and pushing a button to raise the wheels. When going land-ho all one does is reverse the process.
The $200,000 Python is completely customizable with 60,000 exterior shades, 4,000 interior colors, and choice of placement of the seats and pedals. The interior is modeled off of a boat with two captain’s chairs in the front and a wrap-around bench in back. The downside? Aside from the car not having the cleanest lines, to say the least, be prepared to store this chick magnate inside as there is no hard or soft top available.
