Hov Pod
Press Release
Tuesday, 28 April 2009 for immediate release
Subject: Hover Toy for bigger boys.
We hope that you can use this press release, images are available onrequest.All I want this Christmas is my own personal hovercraft. These vehiclesare the ultimate all terrain craft, and allow you to fly at speeds up to 45mph over any flat surface. One minute you can be flying down the river ata cruising height of 9 inches, and then by a flick of the wrist, be scootingup the river-bank, or over the mud, or up the beach to fetch an icecream.Hov Pods allow access to beach 24/7 – they traverse above small rocksand submerged coral and other obstacles in their path, and skim overtidal streams, mud, sandbars etc. When the water runs out, just drive upthe beach or slipway in style, these craft are true all-terrain vehicles.The Hov Pod’s unique hull design utilises High Density Polyethylene – thismaterial has been used in the past in the construction of F1 crash barriersand artificial joints. HDPE is very light, very strong and impact resistant,and extremely buoyant so makes an ideal material for hovercraftconstruction.The Hov Pod design resulted by accident – company founder Peter Wardsuffered a nasty paraglide landing, so not wanting to give up flying butconsequently scarred of heights, he looked for alternative ways to fly, alittle closer to the ground. Hov Pods fly 8 inches above the ground, indeedany flat surface at speeds of up to 50 miles per hour. People get a realbuzz driving at that speed particularly on land to water transitions – youexpect a bump but feel so comfortable. Upon returning to land, you hearyour passengers gasp as they expect you to slow up at the water’s edge –but Hov Pods just keep on flying.

Page 2Hov Pod, and now for something completely different
As you have no wheels or brakes for that matter, floating on a cushion of air enables a completely different yet extremely comfortable ride. Forexample, a quick flick of the steering handles, and you can effect a 180turn, or 360/720 spin – almost as if you were driving some anti-gravitational futuristic craft, back from the future.These versatile craft handle water, sand, mud, ice, snow, any flat surface;driver and passengers get literally ........... blown away. Hov Pods are designed for marine leisure, so there are many safetyfeatures included as standard. The sheer versatility of the craft makethem ideal for all manner of applications, such as tenders, rescue craft,allowing exploration to places other craft and people cannot reach, suchas winter ice-bound island homes, shallow rivers, or deserted islandssurrounded by coral-reefs. With no propeller to disturb marine life, theyare also eco-friendly – you can fly over eggs without breaking any, andwhen hovering, they weigh less than a seagull standing on one leg.The Hov Pod’s unique hull design utilises High Density Polyethylene – thismaterial has been used in the past in the construction of F1 crash barriersand artificial joints. HDPE is very light, very strong and impact resistant,and extremely buoyant so makes an ideal material for hovercraftconstruction.These versatile craft handle water, sand, mud, ice, snow; any flat surface.Hov Pods seat three adults.
