Airboard Personal Hovercraft Gadget

The Airboard Personal Hovercraft is a $14,000 personal hovercraft. But then again, it’s a personal hovercraft! The Airboard Personal Hovercraft product page states that “hovercrafts are not just very unusual and unique, the Airboard is actually available.” Hovercrafts are real.

The Airboard Personal Hovercraft floats about 7 to 8 inches off the ground. The Air Board can go up to 15 mph, and will last around an hour on about 1.3 gal of gasoline. With two levers on the steering arm you can control the Air Board’s acceleration as well as braking. You simply shifts your weight to turn. The Air Board also has a safety switch that kills the engine when the rider jumps or falls off.

The Air Board can be driven “over asphalt, concrete, grass or even shallow wet areas, but cannot be hovered over water, stones, sand or dirt-filled areas due to the bottom side vacuum. Here is a video on the Airboard Personal Hovercraft
