Ski Hover Board?

Okay so i may have figured out the only use for these damn hoverboards the youth are raving about. My mate and i decided to chuck some skis on and see if it was possible to ride around on one of these things in skis and it totally worked.



however the speed is restricted as you can only lean so far forward before you start getting some gnarly tip catches. I also thought it would be a good way to get speed if you were hitting urban in the summer. However, bungy cords are alot less expensive and more practical than a motor scooter for your feet, but if you already had one and were feeling the summer blues i guess it would be a good idea.

Epic idea. These things are fun as fuck.

Just make sure to go with the Original Mobi - not just a cheap knock off.

THE FUTURE OF SKIING! The butters on this must be fast and dialed. Give it 10 years and some global warming, and this will be the next big thing.

Waste of $$$ imo. For that amount I could be on my way to a new ski setup or getting parts for my car that I don't have.

Do I need one? No.

Will I ever need one? No.

Do I still want one? Hell yeah!

cool concept, but as soon as you hop off onto that rail the thing goes down the stairs and never works again

Probably just about to listen to that episode, so thanks for the heads up.

I'll change it that buying Mobi at least indirectly supports the ski industry. :) Mobi was very much in there near the start and I can at least confirm I've used them and they work fantastically.
