Awesome Watercraft

Enjoy the suspension travel of a UTV but prefer watersports? Custom built by Shadow Six Racing, the Typhoon combines a Polaris RZR off-road vehicle with a pair of supercharged jet skis for high-speed thrills on the water. Despite its $250,000 price tag, its maker already has more than 250 reservations for the 800-horsepower titanium and carbon fiber beast.

Don’t have the balance to use a stand-up paddleboard? Decathlon teamed up with Outercraft to design the Hydrobike – a unique watercraft that combines a paddleboard, pedal boat, and catamaran. It has inflatable floats, a single-seat, and modular storage for outdoor gear. It’s a proof-of-concept at this point, but we hope to see it go into production.

The wake that motorized boats leave behind can disrupt smaller craft as well as the marine ecosystem. This extremely efficient Candela hydrofoil electric boat leaves only the smallest wake as it cruises through the water. The boat floats above the water, minimizing drag and surface contact, and maximizing battery life.

The Mako Slingshot is a compact motorized wakeboard. It has a carbon fiber deck, a 100cc 2-stroke engine, and an alloy impeller. It comes with a wired throttle that lets you go at a leisurely pace or zip at up to 34mph. A full tank gets you about 40 minutes of running time.

LockRack is a strapless roof rack for surfboards, paddle boards, kayaks and canoes. It has an anodized aluminum base, nylon rail protectors and non-slip rubber arms. The arms are secured by locking pins and can be folded flat or removed when not in use.

For his latest video, Devin Supertramp replicated the classic speeder bike chase from Return of the Jedi – but instead of flying precariously between giant redwoods, they did the stunt on water, using specially modified Jetovator jetpacks. Duct tape ftw.

Most JetSkis are made from fiberglass, which limits their usefulness in shallow waters. The AlumaSki is powered by a 110hp marine engine, and offers a 1/4″ thick aluminum hull which can help you safely navigate shallow waters.
