After originally being presented nearly 2 years ago by Jason Woods, the Kymera
electric powered body board has undergone a series of improvements, and
is nearly set for its official commercial release in 2013. The Kymera electric
powered body board is powered by a lithium-ion battery pack that will
allow the rider to zip across the waves for around an hour, also comes
with a solar charging station to help refuel the board. The electric motor used can speed up to around 18 miles per hour and
Jason is also developing a propane-powered model that would reach up to
25 mph. Retail price for the Kymera is currently set around $5,000, but Woods
hopes that an increase in demand will allow him the opportunity to allow
the price point to $2,000. Watch the Jet Powered Body Board in action
in the video below.
