Editorial Review
Yet another piece of ordnance from the Toypedo arsenal, the Toypedo Twister makes for some serious swimming pool fun. A foot-long, hard rubber torpedo (about 2 inches in girth), the Twister can be hurled underwater up to 40 feet with one strong-armed throw. True to its name, the slightly angled guide fins on the Twister will send it into a tight spiral--making it not just incredibly accurate, but a lot of fun to watch. Better still, the Twister's marbled rubber body glows in the dark. It's perfect for late night pool parties. --Paul Hughes

Toypedo truly is a work of art as it was designed around the complex hydrodynamic principles of nuclear submarines, Toypedos a must-have for every kid who loves the water.

Glow in the dark torpedo
Grandson wanted this so bad so ordered for him. He loves it and throws it into the pool and dives after it. It does glow in the dark...sort of. It is well made and sturdy. Will be able to use year after year.
Toypedo twister experience
Item is a streamlined version of the original toypedo. This tends to make it go faster and farther. I think the best way to throw it is overhand, like a knife, where you release it from the hand just at/below the water suface. This kind of throw takes a slight forward lunge movement upon release, and an index finger at the top of the toypedo to make it go straight. Also motivates kids to put their head in the water. This advances swimming skills because they have to dive to the bottom of the pool to recover it. The twister rotation makes go straight. Its a great improvment on the original already well-designed toy
Great Toy for the Price!
This came from a partner of Amazon, and it was received in a very timely manner. The children (ages 9 and 11) absolutely LOVE this toy in their pool. As their grandmother, I was pleased that they played with in all summer long amnd never tired of it.
