Well it's kinda cool but I bet it don't handle that great on land OR water.

There is also a Humdiga
And a Aquada which holds a record speed for a amphibious vehicle of 177 km/h on land and 51.5 km/h in the water!!!

I saw that Quadski at least a year ago. I keep thinking it must handle like a boat when it's on land, but it seems to do well once it's in the water. It looks too wide for most trails I ride. Too bad because some lead right to lakes. That would be a lot of fun after being covered in sweat and dust.
My concern would be how close the tires sit to the water, it looks like if you leaned very far that they may cause you to go for an unwanted swim.

Ground clearance on land would be a issue also........Caper.....

Years ago I saw an ad for some kind of tool like a combinaton hammer/pliers/screwdriver/bottle opener/paint stirrer/oven mitt/ice sraper/can opener/laser level/nose piercer/meat tenderizer/pencil sharpener/utility knife/... whatever, tool with 100 uses. I was reminded of something I heard even longer ago, "The more things a tool is designed to do the less likely it will do any of them well." Judging by the looks, I think that applies to ths dual use toy.
