Here’s What a Polaris RZR Mounted to Two Jetskis Looks Like Riding the Waves

Just a few years again, an image popped up on-line of a Polaris RZR UTV outfitted not with wheels and even tank tracks, however with two freakin’ jetskis. The web misplaced its collective minds as all of us puzzled how a machine reminiscent of this might even work? 

And, certainly, it left a variety of us questioning whether or not it we might ever see it within the flesh. Well, interweb denizens, to paraphrase a line from Seinfeld, “It’s real and it’s fabulous.” 

Recently, Heavy D from Diesel Brothers YouTube fame, went on all the way down to Florida (in fact it was made there) to check drive the UTV PWC and ask his subscribers whether or not or not he can buy the rattling factor.

You can inform the fellows had a ton of enjoyable whereas driving it, so I feel it is a certainty. 

As for the machine itself, it was constructed by Shadow Six Racing and is aptly dubbed “The Typhoon.” The construct consists of the aforementioned Polaris RZR and two, sure two, four-cylinder, supercharged Yamaha GP1800 SCHO R engines.

The cage on the UTV has been changed by a titanium unit for added lightness. And what’s wild—properly, what’s equally wild—is that the RZR nonetheless has full suspension to absorb any bumps attributable to waves and you’ll see all of it working as the dual jetskis glide throughout the water and hit wakes. In the video, you’ll be able to hear the Shadow Six Racing’s chief mad scientist Ryan Goldberg say “I kept telling people I wanted to build a trophy truck for the ocean.”

I feel he did.

And the design behind it is not some redneck engineering. I imply, it’s, however it is not in that they actually thought out the way it all works and made positive it really labored as thought up. 

According to Shadow Six Racing, the Typhoon may also seat as much as three individuals, although I’m not precisely positive how, and the UTV jetski abomination additionally has a gasoline capability of 37 gallows, so you may have loads of on-the-water enjoyable when you refill.

As for worth, sit, because the Typhoon will set you again a cool $250,000. That’s quite a bit, however then once more, it is a lot of customized work and a variety of engineering simply to make the watercraft work. 

The Heavy D boys additionally did races with the PWC, so stick round for that. 

So what’s your take? If you had the money, would you purchase one?
