Water Powered Jet Pack - JetLev
A water powered jet pack like the JetLev is not your standard fuel powered jet pack, has 215 horsepower and can fling you up to 28 feet in the air at up to 40MPH. Unlike conventional aircrafts and jetpacks, the JetLev water powered jet pack is an innovative concept greatly improves thrust-to-weight ratio by locating the propulsion engine, fuel and related systems on a separate vessel tethered behind the jetpack, and uses water as the jet propulsion medium because its high density can carry vast amounts of power at much lower velocities, and generate nozzle reaction forces much more effectively, than gases. The JETLEV-FLYER is now undergoing final testing and preparations for production. The first model with 155 HP engine will retail for 99,000 Euros. Production volume will be limited. Orders are expected to ship commencing June 2009 with an approximately three-month lead time.

Pumgo Big Wheeled Skateboard
The Pumgo Big Wheeled Skateboard uses an ingenious 4WD and four wheel steering system to propel the rider without the need to push off the ground. As you push each end of the Pumgo Big Wheeled Skateboard down, the toothed metal shaft underneath spins gears inside the gearbox which in turn spins the wheels. Each wheel is equipped with a one-way clutch to allow the right amount of power to get to each wheel and to allow the wheels to spin freely while coasting and turning. The coolest part is that the Pumgo is easier to ride than a skateboard because it only goes in one direction, forward. The Pumgo is ideal for cruising large flat areas and is great in skateparks for advanced riders. Buy the Pumgo for a price of $149.
Whiking = Bicycling + Sailing
Whiking is a new concept combining 2 sports (bicycling and sailing). Besides being a very green way of transport, Whiking is a new sport that sends riders flying at speeds up to 40-50km/h! The Whike, a tricycle recumbent bike with a 1.6m2 sail, is street legal for both bike paths as the normal road. "Cycling with the Whike is already a lot of fun, but the real thrill starts when the wind begins to blow the Whike forward. Overtaking a petrol driven Scooter with 50km/h is an absolute kick!" Says Olympic sailor Mischa Heemskerk, who tested the Whike recently. Whiking has grown with the Green revolution, since with the constant rising petrol prices, the environmentally aware consumers are looking for alternative ways of transportations. The Whike is green alternative for petrol bikes, cars and public transport. The Whike is clean way of transport; no batteries or engines are used, all you need is the wind to travel large distances easily. You can buy the Whike for a price of around 3000 Euros.

Wakeskis - Stereo Skis
Stereo Skis are Wakeskis that take twin-tip ski technology to the water as the first brand with "new school" water skis for greater freedom and bigger jumps. These Stereo Wakeskis have an obvious influence from alpine skiing, wakeboarding and slope style skiing yet hold a niche all their own. Wakeskis are designed for rail slides, jumps, switch rides and radical tricks, and leave the "oldschool" standard water skiis in their wake (sorry we just could help ourselves). Stereo Models are designed to be used behind powerboats, with kite or at cable parks. You can get a good pair of skis for a price of $400. Though wakeboarding is the mainstream, wake skiing has yet to take off.

The builders and designers of Soularc Skateboards are all dedicated to constant innovation to make better riders for our sidewalk surfing enthusiasts. Can't wait to see what they come out with next!
