In 1989 the introduction of the Power Drencher (the original name for Super Soaker) revolutionized the world of water blasters. Invented by Lonnie Johnson, an aerospace engineer from Atlanta, Georgia, this blaster, later named the Super Soaker 50, used patented air pressure technology resulting in the ability to shoot large quantities of water further and faster than any other product on the market.

Entering the 90's, the brand name was changed to SUPER SOAKER and with the launch of a nationwide TV and advertising campaign, the SUPER SOAKER success story began.

1993: The SUPER SOAKER XP (Extra Power) technology was introduced and featured larger nozzles for shooting more water at once.

1997: The introduction of SUPER SOAKER CPS (Constant Pressure Systems) technology resulted in water blasts that were stronger than ever before.
