The Aptera humor thread
Posted by len on August 14, 2021 at 12:28 pmJust killing some time, during the monsoon and emergence of toads, and crafting some fun stuff about Aptera for my six grandsons.. OK this will take a little explaining for the youngest four…. It segways to nature… Which Aptera mimics….

In a recent video, Chris A. mentioned the Aptera body shape (specifically the curved underbelly) was similar to or inspired by the shape marine life assumes to move through the water more easily. I assume he was speaking of a dolphin or a porpoise. It got me to thinking of the wide 88 inch stance of the front wheels and lo and behold, insects called “water striders” popped into my brain:
“Water striders are able to walk on top of water due to a combination of several factors. Water striders use the high surface tension of water and long, hydrophobic legs to help them stay above water. Gerridae species use this surface tension to their advantage through their highly adapted legs and distributed weight.” Sounds Aptera-like, doesn’t it? Check out the side-by-side comparison below. So once again, Mother Nature got there first;)

Really looking forward to using my kayak paddles again😋. Sold my kayak 2 years ago and had the Paddles in storage.
Can’t wait to see how well my Aptera floats 🙃
-
LOL. I live close to Lake Erie so I have plenty of watery real estate in which to test the seaworthiness of my Aptera! I understand water striders have little filaments on the legs that contribute to their ability to stay on the surface of the water. Maybe gluing some 70s shag carpeting on the Aptera’s wheel pants would help? JK
-
Man why didn’t I think of that😲? I was just going to try overinflating the tires for extra buoyancy.
Worse comes to worse I can remove the wheel pants for wider tires. Hoping I can get away with a little extra displacement on the surface.
-
Wider tires = the Snowshoe principle? Who needs the Amphicar from the early 60s if we have a buoyant Aptera?

They did say the Paradigm editions would have something special about them.

This is exactly what I need for México where I live! I can skwer those pesty pedestrians and bicyclists!(Oooophs! But I ride my bike and walk everyday! Maybe I better not!). I’ll bet my jalapeña wife would love one, too!
