The Wheelman - Motor / Skateboard Hybrid
The Wheelman is a new type of motorized skateboard that can go virtually anywhere. The device consists two spokeless wheels and a 43cc 2 stroke engine. The Wheelman holds enough gas to get an hour and a half of demo footage for all the informercials they will be needing to sell these things. Actually, I would love to try one out but $1,500.00 USD is a bit pricey.
The learning curve of a Wheelman is very similar to skate/snow/surf board riding. And if you have any experience in these you will be surprised on how fast you pick it up.
At speed you use body movement to steer and at low speed (and you can ride a Wheelman at an extremely slow pace) you can angle the front wheel from side to side with your foot.
The speed is controlled by a pneumatic ball held in your hand, the more you squeeze, the more fun you have! To stop, all you need to do is stop squeezing the ball. The vehicle will slow quickly but smoothly, then you angle the toes of your rear foot toward the ground until the pads come into contact, the harder you push the faster you stop. The vehicle remains quite stable and minimises the risk of being thrown over the front.
