| This past February, PowerSki International Corporation achieved two very important business objectives. The first was the debut of our new production jetboard, the PowerSki Igniter 330. The second was to produce a new promotional film and brochure for our distributors and dealers.
It’s been five years since we made the “Shape Of Fun To Come” film and we swore we wouldn’t return to the Miami Boat Show until we had the Igniter 330 PowerSki Jetboard ready to introduce to the public.
PowerSki has prepared a fresh new look to introduce the new Igniter 330 Jetboard. No longer will the images be of a prototype (beta) jetboard, but are of the actual Jetboard that will soon be delivered. Taking advantage of the proximity of Puerto Rico to Miami, we used that tropical paradise setting and its crystal blue waters for a spectacular film, video, and photo shoot. The images we captured are being used in our new promotional film, “Shape Of Fun Is Here”, and new brochure to market the crossover lifestyle of surfing and jetboarding on a PowerSki.
The footage we got will really enhance the viewer’s experience of riding a PowerSki Jetboard. They’ll sense the excitement of jetboarding as it carves G-Force turns through the tropical waters of Puerto Rico. From our experience with the “Shape Of Fun To Come” promotional video, we think this new film will really add to the growing enthusiasm for the PowerSki Igniter 330 Jetboard.
The New Revolution is here.
Many of the changes to the Igniter 330 Jetboard were accomplished using PTC’s Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire software. Using their software to create a virtual jetboard in the computer, we were able to produce a completely symmetrical hull that will carve G-Force turns with greater ease and control, and alleviate the “porpoising” effect that a rider can experience when coming out of a tight G-Force turn. We even added a T-handle (pat. pend.) to the nose tip that makes lifting the jetboard much easier. We were also able to reconfigure complex structural forms such as significantly lowering the deck hood’s profile to an almost flat plane. Our inflatable seal has been redesigned to a smaller, yet tighter tolerance, and our snorkel design (pat. pend.), which had stymied our engineers for months, is now functional and effective.
Everything about the new PowerSki Igniter 330 Jetboard has been well worth the wait. Not only is it a work of art, but a dream to ride!
Here’s some of the killer new photos we took, and stay tuned for more photos and a special video coming soon . . . . . . .
