Bike and Jump Across Water With The AquaSkipper
By Action Isle • Apr 30th, 2008 • Category: WatercraftsThe AquaSkipper isn't exactly a bike. The AquaSkipper steers like a bike, but instead of pedaling to move forward, the rider jumps up and down.
The frame of the AquaSkipper is made of light aircraft aluminum. The whole thing only weighs 26 lbs, and can be assembled and disassembled easily.
What keeps the bike floating? The hydrofoil blades underneath the AquaSkipper keep it above water, while the rider jumping up and down propels it across the water.
The AquaSkipper is faster than other human powered watercraft. It can go as fast as 17 mph.

Global Warming Inspired Amphibious Bike
By Action Isle • Apr 29th, 2008 • Category: CyclesMeet the Bike-Yak. It's a combination of a Kayak and a Bike, and it's made entirely from parts saved from a landfill. If global warming causes a 10 foot increase in sea level, serious flooding would occur in low lying areas.
The Bike-Yak could be one possible mode of transportation for areas that may become flooded due to global warming.

Not Your Usual Bicycle
By Action Isle • Apr 24th, 2008 • Category: CyclesHere's more video of the StreetSurfer, a bike that isn't your ordinary run-of-the-mill bicycle.
StreetSurfer: Improving The Bicycle
By Action Isle • Apr 24th, 2008 • Category: CyclesThe bicycle has been around for a long time, without an amazing amount of change made to the design. The StreetSurfer takes the old design of the bicycle and adds something completely new to the mix. Instead of having only two wheels, the StreetSurfer has five, with the usual one wheel in the back, but four in the front.
The four wheels in the front of the StreetSurfer operate independently from eachother and provide enhanced stability, traction, and the bike's excellent suspension system gives a smooth ride.
Instead of turning the handlebars to steer the bike, the StreetSurfer is steered by leaning to either side.
