UpSki
Milan Baas
Jet Skis are an exhilarating and increasingly popular way to traverse the open waves. Yet due to noise, pollution and the amount of wake they generate, they account for more complaints than their numbers on the water should suggest. Using battery-powered hydrofoil technology, Milan Baas aims to modernize the jet skis design and elevate its place in the world of water sports. UpSki has fin-like foils mounted under the hull. As you gain speed, the foils lift you out of the water, making you glide across the waves. UpSki provides a smooth ride that’s quieter and more energy-efficient without sacrificing on fun.
