ABSTRACT:
Aquatic recreational apparatus providing in an integral structure a kick board and manually operable means for directing a stream of water toward a desired target is described. The apparatus in its preferred embodiment takes the form of a smooth, contoured kick board having dual, laterally spaced handles and integral therewith trigger means for manually operating corresponding pumps. A pair of first fluid conduits extends from dual, laterally spaced inlets located in a rearward region of the kick board to first sides of the pumps, and a pair of second fluid conduits extends therefrom forwardly to laterally spaced nozzles in the extreme forward region of the kick board. The laterally spaced handles provide a secure grip to the user whose upper body is supported by the kick board, while the user maneuvers the kick board by pedal action into a position suitable for directing a stream of water from the body of water in which the kick board is being used toward a desired target remote from the apparatus.
