Star Wars Speeder Bikes! On Water, By Jetovator
Too late for Christmas and Hanukah presents? Maybe you could still find yourself a Jetovator Star Wars speeder bike!
(Jetovator speed bike in action video)
The daredevil crew who created this wild Jetovator speeder bike scene from Return of the Jedi deserve a medal bestowed in the grand reception hall of Yavin 4 to the grateful applause of all honored attendees. These maniac machines are modified water-powered jet skis that hover over the waves with the shrieking force of high-pressured H2O plumes in a beautiful aqua ballet for the ages. We've all seen images of the crazy craft over the years, but never dressed up like iconic speeder bikes straight from the Star Wars universe.
Of course you want to watch this scene from Star Wars Episode VI!
