We have developed a fast one-dimensional hybrid method to calculate the development of extensive air showers. Based on precalculated pion induced showers and a bootstrap technique, this method allow us to simulate ultra-high energy showers with the collection of sufficiently high Monte Carlo statistics. It predicts the average shower profile, the number of muons at detector level above several energy thresholds as well as the fluctuations of the electromagnetic and muon components of the shower. As an application of this code we investigate the main characteristics of proton-induced air showers up to ultra-high energy, as predicted by four hadronic interaction models: SIBYLL 1.7, SIBYLL 2.1, QGSjet98 and QGSjet01.
