Very cool indeed. But during the learning/testing stages, I'd want to be over the water too. |

One wrong move, and you are like a fly on a windshield. Doesn't look like any do overs, look like it would just drill you into the ground. I think I would rather have two wheels on the ground and two feet on the floorboards.

He's probably selling the swamp land as well. Not that I don't believe that video, I just don't believe that video  |

There are more videos of it. The first one I saw was over a year ago and he just went a short distance and back...very slowly and over water again.

only thing that sucks is the 15 mile range. Now if it was 1 hour range, I am willing to risk it, well maybe???  |

With a 15 mile range I could have used it to go to work. Think of the fun one could have thumbing your nose at the landlocked drivers in rush hour traffic.  |

I also saw this about a year ago, and he had set some kind of record.
I believe he has 5 gal of kerosene in his back pack. So range is based upon that. I would say less thrust (reduced height), a little more fuel (safe to carry, a couple of mounted 1L bottles on the base?), and trying for distance, yay, this would be great.
I live by the water, a 5 min walk to the river, jump on this, and at that speed, could be a long ways away from home. Maybe even across the Straight to Vancouver Island.

Based on my previous and youthful rodeo days, I doubt I have the balance to keep one of those things upright but, it would be a blast till I crashed it.  Which most likely would take all that long.....  |
