The 7 most innovative Hoverboards on the market

It is perhaps one of the most enjoyable vehicles ever created, an electric instrument with which to move and which almost gives the sensation of floating. We are talking about hoverboards, the futuristic version of the classic skateboards.

The film Back to the Future has never stopped being a source of inspiration for the creation of new means of transport for the past thirty years: do you remember the flying board that Marty McFly used for moving about? Now it exists and it’s called a hoverboard!

Hoverboards seem to have sprung from nowhere, yet they are sold in hundreds of thousands.

The Highway Code prohibits the use of these vehicles on the roadway, the cycle paths, and the pavements. So, at the moment, we’re only talking about a nice toy without an ad hoc regulation, but there is no reason not to have fun within the walls of your home or in the garden!
