Attention Eccentrics, There’s A One-Man Mosquito Tent Available
Are you the kind of soccer mom that shows up at the game with an umbrella for the sun, or wears one of those large brimmed hats, just so your kids will die of embarrassment? Or maybe you like donning a poncho. In any case, you’re “that mom”. Well, there’s a new item to add to your arsenal. The Insect, Bug & Mosquito Pop-Up Screen Chair Tent is made specifically for one person, and will protect you from those Zika-carrying insects, while simultaneously making you look like somewhat of a fool. You won’t care, because at $49 you think it’s a bargain and an amazing way to make yourself feel like you’ve one-upped every parent at the game, when in reality the joke’s on you.

Koraloc Backpack Will Carry Three Surfboards on Your Aching Back
Somehow, I don’t think it’s a good idea to carry three surfboards on your back, but then again, maybe it will make you stronger. Koraloc’s surf backpacks will let you strap on up to three surfboards. Just call your chiropractor now if you plan to order one. Let him or her know you will be coming to see them soon. Also try not to trip while wearing this. And don’t try to walk through any doorways.
Forget racks on your bike or motorcycle while heading down to the beach. Just carry the surfboards on your back. These packs use a harness system to secure multiple surfboards can handle any board between 5’6’’ and 8’, with the ability to adjust the boards upwards to allow for leg clearance. The slightly tilted design makes it possible to ride bikes while carrying the surfboards behind you.
If you don’t want to hang ten one day, that’s cool. It also functions as a regular backpack, with 29 liters of storage, a laptop pocket, outer side pockets, and adjustable shoulder straps. This backpack does it all. It is only $199.99(USD).

It’s All In The Pressure: Portable Pressurized Shower Head
Just ask Cosmo Kramer, and he’ll tell you: the secret to a good shower is decent water pressure. What’s impressive about the RinseKit Portable Sprayer is that it uses no electricity, and no batteries to give you up to 65psi of glorious pressure just about anywhere you take it. You fill it with up to 2 gallons of hot or cold water, and an internal bladder keeps it under pressure, ready to use whenever you need it. The spray nozzle offers 7 different settings, from jet stream to soaking water, and makes it really easy for you to do things from taking a shower while camping, to rinsing off your tools and equipment after you’re done with them. It can continuously spray for up to 4 minutes, although we suspect it doesn’t do so at the highest pressure setting. Still, at $160, it seems like a great item to get the outdoors enthusiast in your life.

The GoBoat Is Functional, And That’s All That Matters
You want a watercraft that packs in the trunk of your car, works well, and lets you go fishing all by yourself without too much trouble? Look no further than the GoBoat. Weighing only 15 lbs, the boat assembles in minutes, with different parts simply snapping together. You’ll need a pump to inflate the bladder (high velocity hand pump included), and then a bit of elbow grease to drop the transom mounted trolling motor (sold separately) in once it’s set up. But no big deal. It’ll accept most types of such motors, which themselves weigh about 30 lbs and cost maybe $100. The GoBoat itself is a $199 pledge, with shipping in September 2016 if funding is successful.
