For $140,000, you can have a personal hovercraft toy, the Air Board. It can transport you at 15 mph over concrete, asphalt, grass or shallow wet areas, but you cannot drive it over water like a real Hovercraft! Speed and braking are controlled through two levers located on the steering bar, by using varying degrees of weight transfer, the Airboard will sharp or slow turns, 360º turns and sliding turns are all possible, looks Cool!
"Hovercrafts are not just very unique and unusual gifts, they are actually available. They only require gasoline and will transport you at approximately 15 mph. Operate them over concrete, asphalt, grass or shallow wet areas, but you cannot hover over water, sand, stones or dirt-filled areas due to the bottomside vacuum.
Speed and braking are controlled through two levers located on the steering bar. A kill switch automatically deactivates the Air Board in case you unexpectedly jump off, and steering is accomplished by simply shifting your body weight (like a surfboard or skateboard). The gas capacity is 1.3 gallons, which is good for 1 hour of use. Ideal if seeking very unusual gifts or ideas for those with it all. " |
