46. Wii
Price: $249.99 (Although the price varies a lot - depending on availability)
Category: Fun Exercise Gadgets
Wii is a video game console (like Playstation 2) that helps you exercise. Wii comes with the Wiimote. This is the primary Wii controller and it can detect motion and rotation in 3-D. What this means is that to play a game - e.g. a sword fighting game - you actually stand and simulate all the sword fighting actions. Or in Wii Sports, which comes with the console, you mimic the motion used in actual sports to play the game. For example if you were boxing, you would actually be punching the air like you would an opponent or with the Tennis Game, you actually swing your arm to hit the ball with the racquet. Wii is one of the biggest Zlimmer! favorites and if you’re going to buy someone a video game console, get this one.

.
47. Harvard Polar Air 6-Foot Hockey Table

Category: Cool Exercise Gadgets

.
48. Powerizer Jumping Stilts
Price: $340.00 (Varies a little according the weight they can carry but each pair will usually be between $330 - $360)
Category: Cool Exercise Gadgets
Jumping stilts build on the concept of walking stilts, allowing you to walk & run elevated above your normal height. The biggest difference is that Jumping Stilts use fiberglass springs, resulting in a significant bounce upwards or forwards. A bit like the pavement around your house turning into a series of small trampolines. This great gift makes usually tame exercises like walking or running, a lot of fun.

.
49. Cateye Video Game Exercise Bike (61″-79″)
Price: $349.99
Category: Cool Exercise Gadgets
The Cateye game bike is actually a video game controller. It connects with any Playstation or Playstation 2 videogame console and works with many car, off-road and motorcycle racing games. You control the speed and direction of the on screen vehicle by what you do with your hands and feet on the bike. Frankly, we at Zlimmer! don’t like exercise bikes. They are about as boring and mundane as any exercise equipment can possibly get but the Cateye exercise bike is such an interesting idea that we had to share it with you. It’s well worth checking out.

.
50. Butterfly Outdoor Table Tennis (Ping-Pong) Table
Price: $575.00
Category: Sports - Table Tennis (Ping-Pong)

This is a great table for someone who is really into the game and also makes a very nice a gift for your entire family. Ping-Pong is a great family-fun sport and this is an excellent table for the game.
