Mike came up to me a few years ago and wanted to do an ad with him jumping "over" my patrol boat. The caption would read:
Anything Higher Would Be Against The Law!
Unfortunately, the County wouldn't go for it. :(

He should have approached 396 for a little double meaning advertisement. :) :) :)

That's Mike Murphy. He invented the damn thing.

Murphy is a nut.I worked for RBM way back when,the best times where spent with him at the boat shows.No matter which state we were in,someone would spot him and make the mistake of introducing there wife.Next came the "Did he ever tell you about ?"stories.
He's a good guy
Man can survive on Skiin and poozy alone.

I wish:D :D :D :D This is Mike Murphy the original inventer of this toy. I've got some pics of him on some of the prototypes he designed & built before this one, some of them are pretty bizzare. I'm still working on landing my 1st backflip:(
