Walk On Water. The Walk on Water Ball is a giant six foot diameter inflatable sphere that lets you walk on water (and who knows what people will say about you in 2000 years time). Made from a heavy gauge PVC, the sphere has inset cups on its outside surface enabling it to grip on the water, so as you run and roll around inside it, you automatically propel it along! It’s probably the best water toy ever invented.
