We already knew that hydrophobic surfaces are extremely fun—but they’re even better in super slow motion. The Slow Mo guys recently paid GE a visit and shot some footage of their latest projects in their trademark super slow motion—including a hydrophobic coating GE is developing to keep wind turbines free of ice.

You’ll have a blast watching water bounce and tumble off their cutting edge hydrophobic surfaces. But if you’re hankering for an explanation, the guys also did a quick explainer:
