The hovering thing looks fun, but that diving stunt looks like a great way to pile drive your head into a rock or solid bottom.

$6600 Thats not to bad if the pricing holds. Looks like a blast, can you imagine the looks at your next raft up?

I usually think this stuff is stupid, but I like this one. With that said, once you play with it for a while, what you gonna do with it? Get it out every time you go boating? Have your significant other cruise around with the PWC in support? You can't go anywhere really. Fly to the local beach and then sit there in your wetsuit and then go back?

That price does not include the needed PWC or "propulsion unit under investigation", so need to at last double it ;)

I'm going to keep that, along with the necessary PWC in some compartment in my 60' yacht that I'll own when I win the lottery. Duh.

QC, I just had this great image of a guy in this thing flying up to a beach like a super hero, landing on the beach and just drinking a beer and flying away... LOL

I've got this hysterical image in my head of some dude "mooning" the crowd with this thing on and blasting people off their feet.

Re: A new way to fly!

I had this well drawn post all laid out describing how excited I was that there are a couple inventors working the same idea out and how that can only be great for competition and pricing for us to play with!!

Then suddenly all I can think of is southkogs BARE arse 20 feet in the air with a high powered stream of water......


MY EYES MY EYES!!

:D :D Don't worry ... I don't have the initial $6K investment.

Awkwardly now, I have to post that I put quotation marks on that to illustrate the position needed to blast the crowd ... not level of clothing :D However, with your post Lipp ... MY EYES, MY EYES!!!!
