SAN CLEMENTE--November 12, 2001--PowerSki International (PSI) announced today that the PowerSki Jetboard and inventor Bob Montgomery are featured in the Nov. 19, 2001 issue of TIME Magazine, the leading U.S. newsweekly magazine.

The “Thanksgiving 2001” edition of TIME shows two pictures of the Jetboard in a section titled: “2001 Inventions of the Year—New products and ideas are coming at an unprecedented pace. TIME surveys the best.” Reports TIME:

“Inventions come in all shapes and sizes. Some are as simple as purple catsup. Others push the limits of quantum physics. The real measure of an invention is not just how well it works or how impressively it is engineered, but how it changes our lives.

On the Go: Motorized Surfboard. Inventor: Bob Montgomery.

Surf's not up? Chill, dude; the PowerSki Jetboard makes its own waves. Driven by a two-stroke engine that generates 350 lbs. of thrust, the Jetboard can carve up even the glassiest surface in a sport that combines the ease of water skiing with the freedom of surfing. The award-winning engine, designed by a 53-year-old former pro surfer, weighs only 30 lbs. and is just 6 1/2 in. high. A flexible pole in the bow controls speed and direction. It also houses a speedometer, fuel gauge and kill switch.”
