The zorb
How did the idea for the zorb begin: Two dudes wanting to walk on water.
What was a diffleky that the zorb inventes faced, and how did they solve it: it was hard to steer and the way that they fixed it was by filling it halfway up with water
What other thing's did Andrew Akers and Dwane van der sluis invent: tracks to put the zorb on
Who owns the zorb now: The Akes brothers
Is the zorb strong,how do you know: it can hold a baby elpthant that is what it said in the text
Here is my track for a zorb track. It has a massive jump to frigten the passges as for some people it would be joy full. A jump on a zorb track is really rare in nz so it would be a big buyer.It will also have lots of cornners to make it super fun. It would be also the 400 meter long

JET BOATS
Jet boats one of the fastest ways though lakes and rivers.They are slim,shallow.They are good in the sea as well as the lakes they are the every day tool in the water.
Sir William bill halmontion made the jet boats in the 1950.They have boost terrorist percentage up by just over half a million in 1989. Lots of people go in they including the elderly. What I think when covid1 go's away the jet boats will be used a lot because everyone will be fleading to new zealand.
