I've seen people in London on the underground with these, segways (hoverboard is definitely not the right name, they don't even hover :p).
But what exactly is the purpose? You really can't DO anything with it other than move.. granted you may be able to get a flip or something in there, but who in their right mind would do flips on something that has motorized toy parts inside of it.. you can flip on a skateboard, a bike, a scooter, hell you can flip a fucking plane, WHY a "segway".. what is so fun about it?
It's because its something new simply put. Have you ever used one? I used one for around an hour or so, and it is fun to try out for sure. But after that, yeah there is just no use for it! It just makes me feel lazy. Celebrities used them, then fan boys & girls followed and now it's the norm. Same with some fashion really!
