It’s a bit hard to tell in this shot, but that’s your man, party boy Jeff Gibboney, flying through the air like superman while being pulled by his master contraption of a segwayesque skateboard.Yeah, the floating, that’s part of it too. The board itself works quite well.  I took it for a pretty speedy run down the entire hallway, around the entrance, and back down.  It’s a blast.  Needless to say, we all need one.  NEED.  It’s going to be THE way to get around.  Right now it’s about $500 to make.  Believe me, not bad for the fun and functionality you get. But I bet if it gets a touch of reengineering and tweaked part procurement, you could shave it down to maybe $350-$375ish.  Wave a’ the future dude, 100% electronic!
