A British company has created the ultimate boy toy every aspiring James Bond will want for Christmas - a wrist-mounted underwater jet pack.The current prototype, called the ‘x2 Underwater Jet Pack’, is a unique arm-worn delivery system that generates powerful vectored thrust, amplifying movements of the user’s arms.The creators say it gives scuba and free-divers a new way to explore freestyle underwater acrobatics as well as simply fly around underwater. Undeniably cool: The X2 is a unique arm-worn delivery system that generates powerful vectored thrust and are secured to the user's arms Aquabatics: It gives scuba and free-divers a new way to explore freestyle underwater acrobatics as well as simply fly around underwater Unfortunately, the £3,500 gadget will not be released until next year,It is the brainchild of Portsmouth-based start-up S.C.P Marine Innovation and is powered by the latest lithium battery technology, coupled with state-of-the-art digital motors and a wireless control system.

'The weightless environment underwater provides amazing potential for acrobatic stunts and freedom of movement,' said Simon Parke, co-inventor and co-founder of S.C.P. Marine Innovation. To power the x2 Underwater Jet Pack the developers integrated the latest lithium battery technology and coupled it with state of the art digital motors and a wireless control system Thrust: The inventors say the X2 'redefines underwater propulsion' He added: 'The optimum position when using other technology is to hold it out directly in front of you, but this often means that the thrust is directed straight at the user.THE X2 AT A GLANCEThe X2 uses two propellers strapped to the outside of the user's wrist.It is powered by a lithium battery and controlled wirelessly.The inventors say it is superior to other underwater propulsion systems because the thrust doesn't go straight into the users body. 'The x2 Underwater Jet Pack is worn on the outer arms and is fast, manoeuvrable, un-tethered, and frankly redefines underwater propulsion.'The company's website also features the conceptual 'Fitting x2 Underwater Jet Pack System', which boasts a fully-enclosed body suit that makes the user look like a science fiction super-soldier.

Flying over the surface of the water with full three dimensional freedom of movement, soaring as in your dreams! Falling to earth with a splash, and a laugh, and ready to fly again in an instant! Stratospheric Industries, aka X·Jets, is building the best products in the industry, design, engineering, safety and most of all performance.  This new field has brought out the best in hydro engineering systems.  Unparalleled performance, safety minded design, and flight time you can trust! Stratospheric is actively building the hydroflight base in equipment, competitions and safe training methods.  We take the common sense approach that our riders are the focus, we listen to the feedback from all of our users and do the hard work to turn their requests into reality. We introduced our revolutionary Jetblade in 2014, under foot hydro thrust jetboard.  The Jetblade standing flight jetboard, was developed by rider demand, a new product that would live up to their expectations for this new incredible sport.  

Jetpacks NX, along with our ground-breaking Jetblade, set the standard for hydroflight equipment that riders trust. Below are some of the reasons the X·Jetpacks NX and the Jetblade are the most advanced hydro units on the planet. We thrive on the technical detail and making history happen. Stratospheric is proud of what we build and build it better. We offer two choices of hydro jet systems for two completely different styles of hydro flight experience.  “Standing foot jet” system is called the Jetblade, you stand on the jets and use the natural motions of your feet and balancing of your body to steer and control the movement. “Over the shoulder jets” the X-Jetpacks, are the hydro evolution of the classic rocket jetpack.  In the jetpack you are seated on a flight saddles and use your arms and the small natural movements of your body to turn and maneuver.  Our latest model is the X-Jetpacks NX, the evolution continues in safety and comfort. The biggest question we get is whether one or the other is easier to learn or more targeted for younger pilots.

The answer is right down the middle both systems are easy to learn and boils down to individual preference. All products built by Stratospheric are built for performance and durability.  Cast aluminum marine alloy, CNC machined, 38 micron hard anodize, high temp powdercoated finishes.  CNC jet ski adapters, reinforced, cast aluminum alloy U’s,  316 stainless steel hardware, Dual PU coated 2000 Denier hose.  Stitched ballistic nylon coated nylon vests, padded in all contact areas with the body.  All top of the line construction, it all costs more to manufacture and we stand behind of products. After all who can put a price on not missing the best day on the water?  Our competitors cut every corner, we take the good line. It took us years of development before we released of first jetpack in early 2013, we are fast at prototypes and meticulous when it comes to industrialization, the careful process of engineering and building tooling and CNC cutting paths, testing materials, testing configurations and listening to the feedback of the riders.

The process of determining the best engineering configurations need to be carefully researched and developed. We know the sport market and refuse to speed a half finished, untrusted product out the door.  This is what we do 365 days a year, we are a hydro company.  We design dozens of concepts and tested in computer software and built models for real world testing, looking for the right balance between performance and durability.   We have spent decades designing products for sports and know that our users will put our products into demanding situations that we cannot predict.  We built the world’s most technical hydro jet gear without compromise. Fits to all major watercraft brands, SeaDoo, Yamaha and Kawasaki. Recommended level of horsepower, 130 (minimum with a pre-loading impeller sold separately) and up. Horsepower relates directly to the weight of the rider that can be lifted and the amount of thrust available. Preloader props are recommended to improve performance and fuel efficiency.

Tandem throttle control for safety with the rider aboard the jet ski controlling the thrust of the engine, the hydro board rider controls the directions and altitude. Dual 180 from X-Jets, the most technically advanced, beautifully finished, carefully engineered 180 U redirect in all of hydrosport.  X backs up the superior engineering with careful attention to fit and finish.  X anticipates high stress areas and goes and extra step to insure longevity and quality.  The CNC lathe finished 316 stainless steel inlet port on the Dual 180.  Higher stresses are on the mounting side and non-linear torques.  We decided to up the ante and make it stainless.   All this computer flow shaped goodness wrapped inside high temp powder coating inside and out with hard wearing thick epoxy graphics. Flotation is  good, face up flotation is better.  We took the obvious and built it into every model of our jetpacks from the beginning.  When you are waiting to start or have just splashed down, X-Jetpacks are designed to guide you into the comfortable, face up position.  

Padded vest bars in front stay centered and hold your chest up. Our Jetblades are built with compact floatation cells that keep your feet floating in the water while you are waiting to fly. This is hydro flight, there are risks as in any sport, some of the obvious risks we design our equipment to help you avoid. Naturally the X-Jetpack NX is compatible with the X-Jets Jetblade, just swap either out at the end.  Switch over takes under 2 minutes with our custom designed 316 stainless steel big pin adapter. The individuals responsible for the production of the Stratospheric Industries hydro flight equipment production bring a vast experience in sport equipment design and production.  Sport equipment factories and production in Canada, New York, California, Salt Lake City, Switzerland, Germany, Italy and China. Bring action sports products to the market is what we do best.  We select the right materials and processes for each component from the wide range that is available.
