This year has been an epic year for the latest sport technology
and gadgets and some of this stuff might even turn out to be
revolutionary sports gear. Innovative sport technology and gadgets are
constantly evolving as the athletes evolve themselves and these
innovations will mostly all prove to make athletes more efficient, if
they catch on that is.
For those who are craving for surfing at the beach, there is a cool gadget called WaveJet Powered Surfboard. This WaveJet Powered Surfboard is a personal water propulsion device which features technology that
may blow the surfing industry out of the water, once they can make their
boards affordable that is ($4500).
As far as efficiency, WaveJet surfboards have got a good running start
with their technology. They're powered by an integrated twin-lithium ion
battery pack gadget, and are capable of pumping out 20 pounds of thrust
which moves you 2 to 3 times faster than paddling a surfboard. Sounds
good right? The boards are also safe,
quiet and light, and useful in shallow water.
A charge up through a standard wall socket provides a full battery or 30
minute of propulsion time. This is one place they can really work on,
since most surfers spend 2-4 hours in the water on average (estimate).
Wavejets will come out in 3-4 different board styles.
