Many of the you tube responses to this vid are calling it fake, but not me. It's natural for the masses to shoot something down that they just can't believe is real. I can't believe it myself yet I feel it IS real.  Hopefully these new HUVr boards will circulate enough attention to call the hoaxers out. I'm still waiting on those power laces too :)

Nah this is just a really good hoax, sorry. Christopher Lloyd shows some real acting chops in this though.

Four years ago, I'm guessing X was also duped into believing we could run on water using fancy shoes. :p

Curve, curve!

But certainly the thought of bending the laws of physics is exciting.

...Does Tony Hawk even age, or is he like skater Jesus?

I was thinking this had to do with SNK honestly. Yeah I hear of this but they made a video ehh.

Electromagnetism is one way to go about making a hoverboard. Although it's unfortunately not strong enough to stand on and that's the challenge right there. I just don't see why they can't use sound to produce the hover effect. Depending on the frequency you can actually cancel out gravity using only sound vibrations.

You gotta be kidding me. It is either

1. Anti-gravity....technology AKA the flying car bit

2. A computer with censors and super fans ( which is the only true hover board ). The censors would detect colision, or when
a person wants to stop or go faster. That is the next problem, the hover board using anti-gravity, would have to have a signal
to push the user as well as stop the user.

The next problem is the weight limit of the board itself. I am sure that a fan, would make tons of sound. Like the ones equiped
in harriers. On that note, the only true hover board is a deck like the one from "Gunstar Heroes", where the amount of
force being made is greater then the person being lifted. Again, how would know when to stay still or move, in what directions?
Pedals? censors, remote control.


3. Magic baby, magic.

This guy makes alot of sense, about the video as well. If this was real.....I mean omgsh, that thing got me smiling for
a good second.
