Why walk when you can float? It’s more like: why walk miles around town or campus with tired feet when this hoverboard could get you there faster? When they first hit the market they were expensive (and had some fire starting problems), but now they are much more affordable and completely safe.
You can get this Hover-1 Ultra Electric Hoverboard for just $119.99 here. It sells for much more ($192.55) on Amazon.
Fun for the whole family
Let’s face it: hoverboards are also a lot of fun, perhaps even more so than practical. You can take this for a walk around the neighborhood, on your university campus, or to the park for an evening walk.
Anyone weighing between 30 and 220 pounds can ride this hoverboard with a little practice. Kids, teens, you and even grandma can put a spin on it. When you step on one side, the board stabilizes itself so you can put your other foot on it. Then lean forward or back to move and shift your weight back and forth to steer.
Try to do it cool hoverboard tricks such as turning 360°, weaving between obstacles, or seeing how fast you can go (spoiler: 11 km/h). The hoverboard has enough power to climb narrow slopes and a battery that lasts up to 12 miles before needing to be recharged.
No fire here, just good, clean and floating fun
You don’t have to worry about this hoverboard setting your house on fire while charging. The UL-2272 certification means the device has undergone rigorous electrical and fire safety testing to prevent overheating and fire, unlike other makes and models you’ve seen in the news before.
However, if you want to be extra careful, it’s never a bad idea to charge the hoverboard when you’re nearby, just in case something happens.
Get this easy to control hoverboard for a better price than on Amazon: $119.99 (reg. $192.55).
