Featured Review: XXP-175
The XXP-175 was released in 1996, and was one of two blasters in the XXP offshoot of the XP line. It was released before the advent of most CPS blasters, the lone exception being the CPS-2000. Upon its release it was easily one of the most capable Super Soakers available. However, it is now easily outclassed by any CPS type blaster. Regardless, the XXP-175 is still a fun blaster to use, and is one of the most capable of the XP/XXP line. Read More
News and Updates
July 26, 2011: I am in the process of updating some reviews and some other pages. I bet you didn't expect to hear from me for another year. The XXP-175 review has been updated and placed as the featured review. CPS-1000 review updated and image changed. I also changed the Super Charger/Monster page by removing the terrible "rant" and adding information (and a picture) about the QFD. I will post any more review updates on this news entry. Update: I rewrote the review start pages for CPS, Classics, and SC/Monster. Be sure to check out the Classics Page, I posted a Larami product besides a Super Soaker, turtles! Monster XL review updated. News from before 2007 moved to News Archive (finally). New random image also added, entitled "evolution." Lastly, the rogue bold HTML tag was eliminated on the home page.
May 2, 2011: The error that caused the main logo at the top of the page to not display in newer browsers has been fixed. Frankly, I am amazed this website still renders so well in Chrome and Firefox. I'm glad people still check this website, and it has been an honor to serve the water warfare community for over 10 years. This July will be the 11th anniversary of Aqua-Zone. Although it is often in the far off netherworld of my mind, Aqua-Zone will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you for your support! Also, the guestbook section has been taken off the navigation menu... it was so 2001. Enjoy your summer!
April 2, 2010: Your webmaster is alive! This summer will mark Aqua-Zone's tenth anniversary serving the water-warfare community. My goal is to have Aqua-Zone rewritten and overhauled during the summer 2010. I wouldn't expect any major content changes or appearance/layout changes though. After all, this had the best navigation of 2002. The Guestbook and Submissions section will be closed shortly.
December 9, 2007: A new feature has been added to the home page. Aqua-Zone is taking it's best reviews and showcasing them in the Featured Review section. Expect the Featured Review to change every few months. At a Glance section completed and posted for the Super Charger and Monster series of Super Soakers. Another new Random Image has been added, AquaZone: Vice Soaker.
December 8, 2007: Aqua-Zone is prepared to enter 2008. Goals for this year include continued house cleaning of old/outdated content. I am happy with the "At a Glance" viewing for the Max-D, and CPS blasters, however I am not satisfied. I am looking into more ways to make the cumbersome Review database easier to navigate. All XP Reviews have finally been updated to reflect the current layout. The XP Backfire review has finally been reposted using the original review from my former Tripod website. New Random Picture uploaded of yours truly caught asleep.
July 3, 2007: Last month I renewed hosting for yet another year. This month is Aqua-Zone's sixth year of service for the Super Soaker enthusiast. Though the weather this summer has been a little mild for Long Island, I hope to have to have a battle or two this year.
February 26, 2007: Aqua-Zone is proud to announce a new development in this website. The drop down style review navigation is now supplemented by the "at a glance" feature. At a glance is great if you are not sure which blaster you have. At a glance is a table that displays images of all the blasters in that particular class as well as their year of issue, and if a detailed review is available. At a glance is currently only available for CPS Reviews. A Max-D version should be completed soon.
February 19, 2007: Water Warriors section has been deleted from the navigation menu. It served no point since it had no content. The archives section (including the News Archive) has been updated and scaled down.

Aqua-Zone: a definitive source of water-warfare content since 2000
Mozilla Firefox, the best browser to view Aqua-Zone.
