One wheeled skateboard!
So you know that I think that things wheeled personal transport is trending to fewer and fewer wheels. Well, here’s another one for the books - here’s a one wheeled skateboard that uses some kind of voodoo magic to work. I’m pretty sure that he says chickens were sacrificed but you can read his page for the exact incantations and dances you need to do to imbue this device with the correct spirits. He has provided these instructions gratis to the world.
This stuff is great, it one ups the Magic Wheel, IMO, and the next step will be to get it so that the deck is fully above the wheel and you can work it more like a regular skateboard. Sweet.
I feel hot.

Kind of a motorized version of one of these…

“Yes sir, the gals are falling for Bongo. In a big way!”
Nice! My friend Sean actually has one of those, I think he juggles while he balances. Or something. I don’t think I could even balance.

My snowboarding buddy Steve has one,a voodoo board. they are great to practice balance on. In fact, he used to manage Bonkers Board Room in Livingston (where the roller rink used to be) and when no one would come in for hours on end, he would voodoo. It’s not that hard to learn, but it’s hard to do tricks.
