Guide Gift: Airboard Personal Hovercraft

by Matthew Zuras on November 1, 2009 at 10:56 AM


Airboard Personal Hovercraft (Sports Fan, Cost No Object)

Is someone you know the type of person who wants to geek-out and shame all the kids at the skate park at the same time? Enter the Airboard personal hovercraft by Arbortech, a gas-powered transport that floats nearly 8 inches over a hard surface at speeds of up to 15 miles-per-hour. By shifting their weight, 'drivers' can steer the Airboard into sliding turns and even make full 360-degree rotations. The Airboard can tackle concrete, ice, and mown grass. Unfortunately, this hovercraft isn't yet cleared for use over water, but who cares when it can literally glide through the air? At $14,000, the one-of-a-kind Airboard is guaranteed to satisfy any thrillseeker who is lucky enough to have you as their rich friend (or relative).
