    Cool, but it looks really awkward to stand on it sideways while holding onto a handlebar on the front. Seems like it would make more sense to just stand on it facing forward, like a Segway...

    looks more like an all terrain scooter more than a skateboard

    badass i like it!!

    i'd ride the hell out of one.

    I also like them showing the military potential of it, if it proves reliable that could be a valuable asset

    Balance would be better sideways the way they have it. Similar to snowboarding or skateboarding, but it has a wakeboarding aspect to it where the handlebar is up front. The stance is a little wide, but it's probably something they'll work on once they come on sale.

    my initial response, when I saw the title, was going to be "get a dirt bike"

    but then I saw the video and changed my mind...cool toy!

    That's pretty cool but it doesn't look like it goes very fast

    30mph would be fast enough.

    Doesn't look all that "fun" to me...

    But I see huge potential in other areas, such as the military and moving in general (both gear and people).
