sunny, grassy fields = wholesome laughs = best friends.............all thanks to an idea that looked way better on paper



This video is an highly detailed and exact representation of what you can expect daily life to be like if you purchase a WheelSurf.

I'm pretty sure that addressing how obvious that fact that you're going to bust all the time on this thing by adding a good-old, carefree wreck INTO A BUSH at the end of your video, doesn't work out.

p.s. I'm trying to ride a WheelSurf on the moon, asap.

You're time has come Michael J. Fox


The iSlide is a new skateboard-like concept that takes all the functionality of the Segway and integrates it into a vehicle that someone might actually ride. The iSlide is the work of industrial designer Ofir Tal. It has a single wheel and uses a similar Segway technology to balance and operate the device. Learn forward to accelerate and lean backwards to slow down.

It gets a little fishy figuring out how the device is powered. Somewhere in this small board is a hydrogen fuel cell (likely next to the flux capacitor) that keeps the iSlide sliding. Once juiced up, it's capable of traveling at a blazing fast 9 mph. Tal is currently seeking investors to fund this project.
