Other autos covers everything that doesn’t fall into the mainstream categories and may include rides such as powered skateboards.
pro longboard skateboarders would have no problem with regulating the speed when going downhill, but for the rest of us, we will need a little help from Brakeboard, a disc brake system designed specifically for longboard skateboards for slowing or stopping. though referred as “disc brakes” these aren’t actually
as you can see from the design sketch above, this is pretty much a concept, but not as one would have expected from luxury car maker Mercedes-Benz. it is a golf cart, albeit being a concept, it is still a cart unlike any others. the concept sketch pretty much speaks for themselves, but one thing that you are probably not aware of is, this vehicle is the result
when a skateboarding legend like Christian Hosoi (or just “Hosoi”) and classic skateboard maker Penny Skateboards comes together, you know things are going to get pretty wild, well, at least on the hardware end of things. the first result from this holy matrimony is the Christian Hosoi Signature Model Penny
lack of hilly terrains in the urban area to enjoy the downhill thrills? then we say, do the downstairs instead. yup. that’s right, going down the stairs and that’s what the aptly named Stair-Rover can and will let your do. the Stair-Rover is designed from the ground up to let you “surf the entire city” and
these days people like us are just plain lazy. instead of walking to the convenience store that’s just three blocks away, we chose to hop on into our gas-guzzlers. however, if there is the Rover Electric Scooter, then that would be a different story altogether. its somewhat chunky but lightweight aluminum construction hides away a three-phase brushless DC motor
apart from flying cars, traveling on a single-wheel contraption is probably the next most dream about transportation, albeit being way less ambitious. while flying cars may take quite a while to fruition, electric single-wheeler is not a dream anymore – if you have that kind of money to throw. and the money we are talking
granted that the Grizzly Robotic Utility Vehicle might not be something an average ordinary folk would buy, but still its appeal to geeks are just about the same as any other gadgets on this planet. developed by Canadian robotic development firm Clearpath Robotics, the Grizzly Robotic Utility Vehicle is an autonomous four-wheel drive robotic platform
remember the uber cool electric-powered bodyboard, Kymera? well, it might be a dream no more for those who are game enough to give it a go and have at least $2,500 to throw. the folks behind this awesome who-needs-the-wave-anyway bodyboard has taken it to Kickstarter, seeking your support to make it a reality.
if you are looking at getting the most out of your skateboard – we have a bad news for you: it is only as fast your leg could kick, but if you are open to outside of the box skating ideology, then go for the Wheelman Motorized Skateboard instead. take it as natural progression for your insatiable need for speed and your desire to go anywhere with it.
there are skateboards and then there are awesome skateboards. so what’s awesome you ask? the answer is, doing it without any kicking, while still able to tear through nearly any terrains (note: we said nearly) and the Dropboards Carvemotor 50cc Motorized Skateboard is just the ride that will do those.
long before people start zooming downhill with huge, surfboard-like skateboards, there were those little plastic boards that let us whizzed around our neighborhood and at times, landed us in some wild and exhilarating chases by dogs (note: not the other way round). like all awesome things we love (Vespa, Mini – just to name a few), these lovable, kick-powered rides are making…
