The ‘mr hoverboard’ a floating device for everyone, is an experimental project created by ryan craven. he set out with an objective to build and ride a hoverboard that is practical, affordable and fun, by the end of 2014.
after a dozen prototypes all of which tested new iterations, craven gave the technology a maiden outing on december 9th, amassing a crowd of skateboards and bikers spectators.
building upon the video-evidenced potential, craven aims for ‘mr hoverboard’ to make even bigger steps in 2015 by assembling a small team of local enthusiasts in austin, texas, and shortly launching it for crowd-funding. the board enhances four black & decker leaf blowers to elevate itself and the rider, off of the ground and to glide across flat surfaces.
