Cooped Up? Get Uncooped.

With the Hydrofoil Water Scooter, you can skim across the water like a dragonfly. It’s ‘hop powered’, meaning you gently hop up and down to propel yourself forward at speeds up to 17 mph. It weighs a scant 26 lbs and is made of lightweight aircraft aluminum and fiberglass. Both its steps and handlebars are wide, providing for secure control. Because it has no moving parts, it’s virtually maintenance free and silent. For ages 12+ with adult supervision and approved life vest. The Hydrofoil Water Scooter is available at Hammacher Schlemmer for $500. Based on the example below, it looks a little tricky, but once you get the hang of it, it could be fun!
