Own An Epic Wibit Water Obstacle Course in Your Own Backyard

Wibit Sports 2015
Waterslides, trampolines, obstacles – you name it and Wibit’s water obstacle course probably has it and more.

German watersports company, Wibit has been transforming beach side backyards and commercial pools into wild and wacky inflatable obstacle courses for over two decades.

Creators and friends Robert Cirjak and Romann Rademacher experienced their first feature for their water trampoline in an American watersports magazine in 1996, only to have their one and only trampoline idea stolen at the BOOT show in Dusseldorf.

Despite this, Robert and Romann stuck it out until their creation of a commercial grade floating aqua park design hit the market in 2000. Fourteen years later, Wibit sports is now the world leader in floating water parks and can configure an inflatable adventure right in your own backyard. If your backyard is a beach, that is.

Regardless of property size or budget, the Wibit water obstacle course comes in modular designs which vary in size and capacity. Though they’re a little too big for your average-sized pool, Wibit’s products can be found at commercial pools, resorts, camps, and open water locations all around the world.

Or you just need is to own a lake, or some sort of lakeside property. Of course, it is also inflatable, so if you can make arrangements to take in on a community lake, I bet you’d be the coolest guy in town.

The WiBit aqua parks feature a heap of different obstacles and activities to transform your summer for the better. And because their designs are always evolving, they can create a customized solution for you.

Boasting commercial grade construction, tough German safety standards, and devoted passion for sports, WiBit’s will give you trouble-free yet challenging entertainment for your guests.  Each Wibit product also comes equipped with the necessary setup parts, as well as an accessory kit, depending on your combination.

Check out the experience below to see if you’re ready to have what could be the best summer of your life.

Fire restrictions and water shortages hit Grand Canyon visitors—what to know
Hiking at the Grand Canyon anytime soon? Watch out for this new danger

Grand Canyon National Park has just located a new break in the Transcanyon Waterline. While the waterline has seen its fair share of issues, this latest incident in a long series of breaks means that the South Rim will need to face stricter water restrictions. Until the repairs are completed, the park is officially in conservation mode, and the water was completely shut off on December 7th.

If you're planning on hiking or visiting the South Rim in the coming days, be aware that you will need to carry more water than you originally planned. Refilling and treated water stations will be limited, so save your water for drinking only and bring more than you think you'll need. Once you deplete half of your water, consider turning around or heading to the nearest exit point or ranger station to stay on the safe side. You don't want to find yourself in an emergency situation.

Toyota’s ‘convertible’ Land Cruiser ROX concept is beyond cool
The open-top one-off is wider, wilder, and more fun than any other Toyota concept in recent memory.

Fresh from this year's SEMA event, this Toyota "convertible" is among the coolest Land Cruiser concepts we've seen in years. The design, a brainchild of Toyota's North American design studio, Calty Design Research, is distinctly LC while taking a clear stab at both the Jeep Wrangler and Ford Bronco. It's an overlander's dream — bolder, wilder, and more fun than almost any other Toyota on the market.

Calty had a hand in the creation of the 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser 250, and it shows. This concept, dubbed the Land Cruiser "ROX" (an acroynm for "Recreation Open eXperience"), is a nod to the LC's open-air, open-top heritage. The redesign process involved swapping more than 50% of the vehicle's OEM parts, from the sheet metal to the glass and beyond.

For a lot of campers, simple food while out in the wild is the go-to. While that might be okay for some, you shouldn't have to settle for bland fare if you don't want to! A flavorful meal while in the outdoors can elevate your camping experience. We've covered how to do this before, but here's a whole new thing to try: repurposing your empty Tic Tac containers to hold spices.

That's right — don't throw them out! Believe it or not, Tic Tac containers are perfect for this purpose. They're small, compact, and have a flexible plastic lid that can open and close repeatedly without breaking. Try using them for all your favorite spices: salt, pepper, garlic powder, whatever you like! You can also use them to store dry herbs such as thyme, oregano, and basil. Just use a clean funnel for a mess-free transfer.
