Sometimes we require some of the most ingenious vehicles to move across. The last one that really impressed me was the Segway x2 recently released by Segway. Though Segway x2 can tackle any terrain, it cannot tackle water. And on water, I would prefer AquaSkipper. This really awesome human-powered device lets you hop on water and you would neither sink nor have to get in water. The device is lifted above water by hydrofoils and keeps it from sinking. A user just has to climb atop the platform, grab the handles and start jumping across the surface of water.

If someone thought you are an extraterrestrial, don’t be surprised. Cheaper than any yacht or luxury boat, and definitely cooler than just having Segway x2, AquaSkipper costs $1,426. More than anything else, since it is human-powered, the product is green, sustainable and consumes no energy. You would even have the satisfaction of doing something for the nature. Unfortunately it is only available in Germany at the moment.
