This make the revolutionary Splash Drones pretty much a must-have for any water sports enthusiast, since they enable him or her to film every detail of his or her sport. These super drones will be on show in the Water Pixel World at boot Düsseldorf from 23. to 31. December 2016.

There is another prize for the most attractive and exciting clips: they will be part of the new advertising campaign with which boot Düsseldorf 2017 will be publicised. The most distinctive pictures will be chosen as poster and advertisement motifs! Before the biggest boat trade fair in the world starts, these pictures will be used to advertise the event in and around Düsseldorf as well as in the international water sports magazines.
