AirBoard is an innovative gasoline powered personal hovercraft that rides on a cushion of air and can go as fast as 15 mph.
Priced at $14,000, it can operate over concrete, asphalt, grass or shallow wet areas, but cannot hover over water, sand, or dirt-filled areas. [via]

How it a hover craft if it’s still on the ground?

Well that sucks, its just Wheelies, but bigger and this time when some one bumps into you, you’ll REALLY feel it! And it is by no means a “Hover Craft” if it can not travel over all terrain, including water and “sandy areas”.

I agree, we are heading to world where peak oil is a reality and other natural resources are following suit.
There is no room for this.
And it is nothing like skating, like to see you try and ole a gap, or go for a font side air on that!
Nothing like surfing
It’s a hoover craft.
Good idea, but need to be smarter on the powered front.

traversing sand/water/dirt is WHY you buy a hovercraft? $15,000 to ride over flat parking lots and lawns…for an hour… seriously?
