PIMP MY BOARD
The world’s leading jetboard company, Radinn, has just launched its next generation electric board, all controlled by a nifty handheld remote.
The jetboards are almost silent as they glide across the water, so you won’t be heckled like those annoying jet skiers, and being electric, they’re also environmentally friendly. While they may conjure up visions of Marty McFly riding a hoverboard in Back to the Future II, the Radinn jetboards take it a step further, and come with Bluetooth connectivity, a Radinn app, and smart features so riders can configure, monitor and customise their jetboard experience. They are not cheap, but who can put a price on this much futuristic fun?

HAVE SHOE, WILL TRAVEL
There’s nothing worse than hiking in boots that pinch your toes, and your trotters feeling like they walked over hot coals after finishing a hike.
Hush Puppies, usually known for its casual wear shoes, has just released their first foray into the hiking market with an Adventure Shoe. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or genuine hiking enthusiast, you’ll find these sweet puppies to be ultra lightweight, breathable and practical. They’re even water resistant. Even if hiking isn’t your bag, these boots come in four stylish designs and look just as good with a pair of jeans or casual pants.

PINT SIZED DRONE
You know we love a good drone here at get lost, and the latest mid-range consumer drone from DJI has really piqued our interest.
The Air 2S packs the best camera sensors and technology into the smallest, lightest and most compact drone design on the market. Weighing in at a smidge more than a pint of beer (595 grams), this slick-looking drone provides high-end image quality (capable of shooting 20 megapixel photos), as well as 5.4k video up to 30fps and 4k video up to 60fps. This tiny drone also contains a digital zoom and added obstacle avoidance sensors to help you avoid nasty collisions. A great option for both beginners and experts.

ROAM THE WORLD
Whether you’re hiking through valleys and forests or chilling out on a beach, it’s always good to be accompanied by a few tunes.
The Sonos Roam is one of the best options there is for a travel speaker. Featuring a versatile and sleek design that comes in black or white, you can place the Roam vertically to take up less room in your backpack, or horizontally to provide added stability on uneven surfaces outdoors. With 10 hours of continuous playback on a single charge, it should be able to last large adventures (or parties) and has a further 10 days of battery life when not in use. Crucially, the Roam is dust proof and completely waterproof, so if you knock it into a jacuzzi while you kick back with a cocktail, don’t stress - it can handle it.
