First Real Hoverboard

[Covert Rain]

Unlike the last time, this is no hoax. The first real hoverboard. Yes this has limitations and is based on magnetic technology. However, it's a step towards the real thing.

Imagine (a la Star Wars) being able to move really heavy objects across a warehouse floor? The application of this technology has much potential and could lead to more advancements.

Very cool stuff.

The only drawback of this technology is the floor needed to make it work.

Here's Tony Hawk putting it through its paces and doing a 1080 on it - gets wild.

they have a kickstarter for this I believe but to get the board, you have to pony up some serious coin.
