Skatey Balance Surfer

The one-wheeled Skatey balance surfer lets you ‘surf on land’. It is lots of fun and feels more like a snowboard or a surfboard than a skateboard.

Here’s how it works: step on the back platform, so the front is facing up. Then plant your front foot on the the front platform. There, a sensor reads that your foot is settled, which allows the brushless motor inside the wheel to know it’s good to go. Lean forward, Segway-style, and the board’s gyroscopes balance and accelerate, moving you forward.
