Walk on Water With Waterwalkerz

September 7th, 2009 in Inspiration

The name says it all - Waterwalkerz let you walk on water! These massive spheres filled with air are available in real life. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like you are able to effortlessly walk on water with perfect balance like Steed and Peel. The balls are made from a class of plastics known as Thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) that are elastic, transparent, offer excellent abrasion resistance, and are tough – so tough the balls can even be used on pebble beaches. Although Waterwalkerz measure 2 meters in diameter, the company claims they can be used in pools as small as 8 foot in diameter and that a 25-meter pool could easily have five or more going simultaneously. The company suggests a 200lbs (90kg) weight limit, but they do claim to have had people over 250lbs (110kg) use the balls with no problems.
