A lot of fuss about something we knew in Primary school: like magnetic poles repel.
It will only hover above their special surface that is magnetised.
Credit for the powerful magnets and the cool blue light.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Wow, a hoverboard that can support the weight of one person using electromagnetic force.
Imagine if they could ever invent a train that travels very fast and carries hundreds of people using the same principle.
Duh.  :||||

Still, it is great to see there are people working on bringing an end to the shocking lack of hoverboards in the world today :thumbs
