You should really look at follow up reports on such events.

If this is true this would need a specialized road.

dammit   >:(

quite fascinating if this technology is shaping up..! and then we will see people floating in air around the city..! just imagine.. :p but i think it is just a hoax like mentioned above ..! but I can see this type of technology growing in near future..! when bitcoin will dominate the world .!

I think this a hoax. Anti gravity is not yet invented.

No its not anti gravity..! but we all know we can beat gravity by using technology.. aren't those Planes are flying in air they are not anti gravity but still flying by using technology, this may be a hoax but I'll not get surprised even if i see this thing with my own eyes because it might happen in coming years or maybe a lot earlier because the technology is growing at very high speed, always remember that Hardware stays around 10years ahead of software ..!

Give!

I want it so bad!

its a hoax the celebs involved did an apology video for tricking people

+1
Definitively HOAX !
Think about Mercedes / BMW / Ferrari / Porsche /... , or how this hoverboard will make useless the roads / railways..
I think the military will don't miss the opportunity to put a heavy tank to a hoverboard too  ;)

Ha-ha sorry it exists you mean but we haven't figured out how to harness it yet
Except in exceptional cold
Still cool video

Instantly reminded me of http://youtu.be/azRzqI3BJ2A.

Really dissapointing. Would've been a child dream come true. :)

I don't think this kind of hoverboard will challenge autos - speed is too limited and everyone is in hurry nowdays.

Even if it is a hoax the technology actually exists to create a real one. It is not really that difficult to make something float like that since there is metal under all concrete then using reverse magnetic technology with an electromagnet would make it float. And depending on the strength of the electromagnet used would determine how much weight it can hold then all you would need to do is find a good way of turning it on and off.

I'm not sure the technology exists fully yet or how workable of an idea it is. It's really not as easy as your explanation.

Are you guys still harping on this?


SpringStudio  (http://www.springstudio.com/)themselves have said it's not true.

Oh it's that time of the year again!

Surely its a joke. 

Anti-gravity? :D
what the hell :) it must be a joke.

When I will see that they are selling those I will believe :)
This is just impossible :)

It doesn't have to be anti-gravity, it just has to have enough force to overcome gravity and some weight on it. You know thats how like airplanes work? And helicopters?

Pre-Orders will be taken in bitcoin only. With money back guarantee*.

Wow ... But thinking what would it be like if it came true... I mean it would be a quantam leap. But as it is ... There is some time for it.

With that thickness and compactness you cannot compare it to an airplane or helicopters without moving parts and that vehicle to payload ratio did not exist yet.

Wow really? Where can I send my money?

As I see there is no possibility to do it yet. :)

And I suggest to do not preorder :P

1st of all think :) how this would even work? :)

Yeah you can.... just scaled down. Its like saying the huge computers of the 1930's and phones of now are comparable. Perhaps the analogy was stretching the truth, but you don't need antigravity.

yeah like being hung out to by cords to a lift like they did in the video and just retouched the video to delete the cords

BFL is taking preorders for the hoverboard set to deliver in 2016; so really it means that you will get the board in 2028. :D

if you will be lucky :)

2028 - anti-gravity ... maybe :) hell know.

But this is just not too easy to be done.

Anti-gravity must work with magnetism of planet earth ... I do not know what kind of researches are in progress but this is just too SciFi for now ;)

Believe non of what you hear and half of what you see.

Just like the lap giraffe lol
BitcoinINV

a lap giraffe would be awesome.  possible through genetic modification?

edit:  actually, it would only be awesome for a few minutes.  then it would poop and pee everywhere and have all the other nuisances that come with keeping a furry animal at home.

:) well .. :) so what we should believe ? :D

For sure I do not believe in anti-gravity :)

I feel like this is a BFL^TM Moment who knows maybe they will refund with fiat instead when the price goes up a few scales haha

fake as a motherfucker


only way it would work is with magnets... and that can only be possible in specific areas if they put magnets in the entire ground

Maybe it is some new kind of science. 100 years ago they don't believe in cars either ;)

This particular one is a hoax but... people can make a less appealing(& functioning) hoverboard with blower motors so why can't a corporation make a better one someday?

Yes this ^^ is almost the same :) hehe.

Looks good! :)
Prototype of hoverboard indeed :)

Nice manhole cover hoverboard prototype.  :)

That could be cool to ride this hoverboard.

the one thing from that movie that is being made is the auto lacing shoes.
while its somewhat of a good idea, i dont see it being all that practical.

a hoverboard is a simple design, negative on negative poles = lift.
however you'd have to have a very large grid under you, then on top of that, simply thrusting your foot in air would do nothing more than move air.
you'd still have to touch the ground with your foot to make the board move.

turning would also be impossible since simply moving the board would have zero effect on the direction you would go.
this is why we'll never have hoverboards that aren't at least powered by some propulsion device, like the bulldog or pitbull board biffs son (griff) flew on.

kind of crazy how i remember all their names

I woumd totally buy one if they were sold for under 1000 euro :P

I would totally buy one if they were sold for under 1000 euro :P

Expect real hoverboard in 50 years.

Awwww
That sounded so cool.
Hopefully I will live long enough to see a real one.

I have one at home and it works perfectly

Okay, so the hoverboard was a hoax but here's your consolation prize.

those are confirmed true, though not as fun or accessible to the masses.

Well it is not the same ... anti gravity is much more fun :-)
But this at least are real.

I have not clicked the link yet I just wanted you to know that if this is a joke I will not be happy.  I've waited far to long for this day and will not have you play with my dreams and emotions...    :D

I initially posted it thinking it was real, but it turned out to be a hoax.  I was thinking "no way this is a joke, look at all these celebrities involved and Tony Hawk".

well I can forgive an honest mistake..  I was falling for it until I seen how high it picked T O up off the ground..  That shot made me doubt the whole thing.  Cool vid anyway but sadly I have lost a some of the little respect taht I had for the folks on the funny or die crew lol.  ;D

I accept the consolation prize.
Where can I pick mine up?

But Hovercraft is real

You can pick it up here http://www.jetpackamerica.com/jetlev-r200    Oh, almost forgot, you need to give them $80,000 before you can pick it up.

Wow hoverboard is so cool.

I would test it much further from this concrete shore and boats ;)

1 day after it's release: "First hoverboard bought with btc"

We thought men couldn't fly, mobile phones were a joke,led lights,flatscreen tv's and so on. the are making beds that float in the air. So it might just be true. If so hold on to your wigs and cigars boys and girls we're going on a ride!
