Will Ferrell’s sunscreen offers three different varieties of sunscreen: Sunstroke, for the golfer who wants to look the part, even if they can’t play the part; Sexy Hot Tan, for those who want to be sexy, hot and tan; and Forbidden Fruit, for those who want to tan everything from their arms to their legs to even their forbidden fruit.

Not only will you receive protection from the sun with its SPF30 UVA/UVB broad spectrum formula, but you will also be benefiting Cancer for College an organization that has been providing scholarships to cancer-surviving students since 1993. Two-time cancer survivor and double amputee Craig Pollard founded the organization. Pollard and Ferrell were fraternity brothers at the University of Southern California, and since the organizations beginning, Ferrell has been a devoted supporter and celebrity host at fundraising events. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the sunscreen go to the organization, and to date, the sunscreen has grossed $100k, which goes toward everything from textbooks to four-year scholarships.

Help protect your skin while participating in a good cause. You can get any one of these products and find out more information about Cancer for College at www.cancerforcollege.org. Retail price: $11.99

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to climb into a giant hamster ball and get towed behind a boat so fast that you see Jesus? Well, wonder no more. The Barf Ball from O’BRIEN will give you an experience normally reserved for cartoon characters. The smooth outer skin allows for a smooth ride, but the 78” diameter sphere was made to spin you like a pair of underwear in a spin cycle. When you’ve had enough, just let go of the 3 PVC welded handles and fly out the rear exit. Don’t worry. I’m sure the water is really soft at 30 mph.The Barf Ball is available at most sporting goods retailers for $599.

Want to win the Barf Ball? Campus Talk gives away gadgets like candy! You can win one just by following us on Twitter or by joining our Facebook page. Check out our contest page for details how to enter.

Nothing says summer fun like screaming into your best friend’s face like a howler monkey riding a spinning carnival ride. The stainless steel swivel located at the bottom and reinforced with Kevlar straps allows the Revolution to spin while being towed. Strategically placed fins coupled with eight handles allow the riders to hold on for dear life until the waves or centrifugal force launch them into space.

Airhead Mega Rock Star

Know what’s cooler than a giant inflatable thing that looks like a hotdog on an open bun that six people can ride on whilst being pulled behind some manner of watercraft? Throwing each other off of it! The Mega Rock Star’s curved wings not only allow riders to comfortably lay down or kneel on the towable, they supply a rocking motion that allows one of those riders to launch across like Nature Boy Rick Flair off the top ring ropes. The Mega Rock Star’s heavy-duty PVC construction and 14 handles means never again will you have to settle for a bunch of lame tubes to stage your next King of The Raft Battle Royale.

Being dragged behind a boat in a straight line is about as fun as being dragged behind a horse by your foot. The U Slalom PVC takes skill tubing to a whole new level. The VEER Towing System and Tiger Tooth steering fins coupled with its curved design allow the rider to pull off maneuvers traditional tubes only dream of as they sit on the shelves at Walmart. And because the folks at SportsStuff are smart enough to realize that it takes two and sometimes three to tango, the U Slalom is available in 1, 2 and 3 rider configurations.

SportsStuff Slalom Sally

Although the Slalom Sally is pink and purple and is designed specially for women, I bet there isn’t a guy out there that wouldn’t give his left… well, let’s just say any guy would do something very not-cool to ride this cool Doable from SportsStuff. With the patented VEER Towing System and Tiger Tooth steering fins, the Slalom Sally lives up to its name. One or two riders can just lean which way they want to go and Sally does the rest. And no matter how wild the ride gets, you ladies are guaranteed not to break a nail holding onto any of the multiple grab handles with knuckle guards.

SportsStuff Mixmaster2

Love pulling sweet 360s and 1080s in a car but hate the whole “slamming into a tree or light pole” business that usually ends the fun? Then the Mixmaster 2 is just what your insurance company ordered. The VEER Towing System combined with the rocker bottom design and patent-pending Tiger Tooth spinning/steering fins allows up to two riders to pull off some of the sickest moves this side of Shawn White at the Olympics. And like its sister Sally, the Mixmaster 2 has multiple grab handles to keep you from skipping across the water like a ragdoll.

In Case you’ve been living under a rock, FOOTBALL SEASON STARTS TOMORROW! That’s right, tomorrow campuses across the country are going to be smorgasbords of beer, food, loud music and thousands of grills with each festival of absolute excess culminating with 3 hours of gladiator like contest.

Grills that are going to have to be cleaned the next day by people with monumental hangovers who would rather be doing anything other than cleaning all the burnt-on BBQ sauce from the previous day’s tailgating festivities. That is of course unless said people were smart enough to grab a new EZ Grill Disposable Charcoal Grill from the grocery store or gas station when they were picking up the rest of their tailgating supplies.

Next to actual meat itself, this is quite possibly one of the most useful and convenient inventions ever to be created by man. Everything you need (Except for 1 match) to grill a tailgating feast comes in a nice neat package. Just remove the EZ Grill from it’s charcoal-dust-proof plastic wrapping, put it on it’s wire stand, throw in a match and in 15 minutes you’re ready to grill up everything from brats to steaks. The EZ Grill stays hot enough to cook anything you can throw at it for at least 1 1/2 hours. I literally cooked on mine until I had too much food for everyone to eat.

What’s really cool about the EZ Grill is that once you’re done cooking you just fold it up into itself and throw it into the garbage. (Make sure it’s cooled down first) After I had a chance to use one of these and realized how easy and convenient they were, I started keeping one in my car. What? You never know when a party is going to break out or when you’ll be stranded on some back road somewhere and need to kill something and cook it to survive. My mamma didn’t raise no fool and at less than $20 for four of the regular size, I stocked up.

The EZ Grill comes in two different sizes with the Regular EZ Grill measuring 9.8″ X 12.2″ and the Party EZ Grill measuring 18.9″ X 12.2″. The regular is great for keeping in your car or camping while the party size is ideal for tailgating or situations where you’re going to be cooking for several people. But their both perfect for people who just hate cleaning a grill after the big game.

The EZ Grill can be found at several different retailers listed HERE. The company also has great deals if you buy them direct from their order page HERE.

Fortunately those hard times riddled with inadequate gear have come to an end thanks to the guys at SportsStuff.com. For ‘09 they’ve introduced a sick lineup of floats and towables. Actually, calling them floats and towables don’t do them justice. The floats are basically bulletproof islands and the towables, coined as “Doables” by Sports Stuff sport some revolutionary towing systems and are made up of heavy duty PVC material. They may be a little more pricey than your Wal-Mart brand Big Bertha tube but hey, A Corvette costs more than a Honda Accord for a reason.

Check out this gallery complete with full descriptions on each of Sports Stuff’s new products for ‘09. You can also visit www.SportsSuff.com for ordering info and to check out their entire line of insane products. Honestly, if I had a couple grand to blow, I could spend it all at their site.
