[1] The HQ HYPNOTIC QUAD KITE ain't no beach toy: With a flick of the wrist—and a bit of practice—you'll be pulling inverted hovers and other advanced tricks in no time. ($110; 800-541-0314, www.intothewind.com) [2] When he isn't gunning for the Oval Office, General Wesley Clark pitches electric mountain bikes—as chairman of WAVECREST LABORATORIES.
