Spinning Tow Ball for water sports lovers

If you happen to have the penchant for water sports, then the Spinning Tow Ball is just the thing for you as you seek for ever new experiences in getting that new adrenaline rush high. This inflatable tow ball can spins 360º on its horizontal axis while careening across the water, being pulled by a boat. It spans 78″ in diameter, where the ball itself is composed of two hulls, an outer shell that glides across the water as well as a recessed 60″ diameter inner shell suspended by 114 shock absorbing nylon cords.

This results in a human sized open-ended sphere which accommodates one rider up to 250 lbs. A swivel joint which attaches the ball’s front to a boat’s tow rope allows the rider to push against the interior using a trio of sturdy handholds to begin (or counteract) the spinning motion. As for the chamber’s shock absorption, it enables riders to enjoy the inherent jostles, caroms, and rotations that result from a full-speed joyride. Thanks to its durable 24-gauge PVC construction, the Spinning Tow Ball is more than able to withstand bumps, scrapes, and repeated buffeting by water and rider. Good thing you need not rely on lung power to inflate this puppy since it comes with a heavy duty valve which is pump-friendly. The price for adventure? $799.95

Capable of blasting arrows up to 40 feet away, it comes with half a dozen Mega Foam Arrows for you to play with.

In addition, it comes with a Bowstring Tension Adjuster as well as a built in Scope and Vision Lens to increase one’s accuracy, although it will not make any compensation automatically for other factors such as wind speed. The Scorpion Bow can be yours for $33.11

This is a design that was created in New Zealand for those that live in New Zealand. These were sent off to local politicians and organizations along with a letter to help raise awareness of their Alzheimer’s charity. Thus far these seem to have worked pretty well and have gotten a positive response in that part of the world. It’s a great creative idea and it’s even better that they’re doing it for a good cause. There’s no word if there’s somewhere to purchase these online so far.

Of course, not all is doom and gloom even with Android 1.5 running on it (although we would have liked to have an assurance of an update coming our way in the near future), as the Motorola i1 will come with a range of robust business and entertainment applications that can be downloaded off the Android Market thanks to its integrated Wi-Fi capability.

You will be able to reorganize your life better thanks to applications such as Scan2PDF Mobile 2.0, Unit Converter – ConvertPad and RealCalc Scientific Calculator and Facebook or Twitter support. Not only that, there are Sprint partner applications that is available for businesses on the Motorola i1 which include the Xora mobile workforce management solution which enables businesses to have real-time visibility into field operations, while helping to automate payroll and job workflow processes.

Apart from that, you can also access your Microsoft Office files on the go thanks to Microsoft Document Viewer, with a 5-megapixel camera to capture beautiful moments when you do not have a dedicated digital camera handy. A 3.1″ HVGA screen, microSD memory card slot and Flash 8 support are part of the other specifications. You up for a new rugged phone? We admit, for a rugged handset, it is quite the looker.
