FlyingManxMan Posted October 24, 2003 Report Posted October 24, 2003 Always wonder if it isn't possible somehow! Reckon there must be a way with magnets and poles etc. Hope we see it happen in our lifetime! I certainly want 1! Quote

No magnets - Anti Gravity works on Capacitance and VERY HIGH Voltages which creates electronic fields to produce lift. Real UFO technology..... Quote
BeeZer Posted October 25, 2003 Report Posted October 25, 2003 FLUX CAPACITANCE....the way to go. Quote
The Flyin Scotsman Posted October 26, 2003 Report Posted October 26, 2003 Why not get transparent wheels and trucks and pretend your on a hover board... lol, would definatly help you get more height when jumping and cushion your bad landings, lol, personally i'd just settle for a HillBilly Trampa, Kev Quote

rjw Posted October 30, 2003 Report Posted October 30, 2003 can you go upwind on a hover board. a drunken discussion in the pub last summer led to talk of an amphibious board with retractable wheels for kitesurfing and land boarding, then someone said 'hoverboard' then the inevitable can you go upwind on one? lol rjw Quote

IS THIS POSSIBLE AND HAS ANYONE TRIED????? YES... It's a very advanced skill. But, most flyers unhook or cut the lines before they get to deep.... Not tried it myself... Quote
