Summer’s almost here, and you know what that means: time to dust off your swim trunks. Happily, Airboard’s Wet-Kit makes it fun. Simply slide the company’s Classic model (sold separately and geared toward snow season) into the Wet-Kit, which adds side wings and double-set fins, and boom — it instantaneously becomes a body board that boats can tow along at terrifying speeds. Hop on and hang ten today. $269. www.airboard.com
