      @lia I can't find anything yet, I'll keep on looking.
      A backpack for this makes sense because the board can flex without the battery in the middle and lighter than with the battery and controller on the board. Also the controller and battery can be shielded from the elements.

        @lemur Cool thing! Tnx for the share!
        Reminds me another non nose-dive-ish vehicle:

        - although this one should be called "belt tractor style landboard" instead.

          Shared this on the prior forum but I'll share here too.

          There is a kickstarter (currently not going well by the looks of it) for the "Speedboard" which is a 2 wheeled skateboard with a pivoting front wheel that reacts to leaning in order to steer into a turn.

          Wanted to make my own but I'd need to weld to make the front arms.

            @lia Another cool pricey toy for adults.
            "... and it never gets speedwobbles ..." - I'm highly suspicious about that. Looks very smooth ground dependent. Still tons of fun, no doubt.

              @sirgu Me too, I feel like the speed wobble is replaced with getting locked into a turn and falling off.

              Not sure if suspension on the rear would be a good idea but when I looked at making one I had it in the plan.

                @lia The guy looks a little bit like a young Kyle Doerksen with hair. Haha.

                  @sirgu Sure looks fun! Still gonna be a problem offroad or traffic bumps over 2".

                    @maciak To put that in comparision .. gotta love this climb-over-anything ability of that Vendetta thingy. Although we do not know how many shots it took to accomplish such clip.
                    On the other hand, with all that complexity 'n details, it must have taken ages to maintain this stuff after each trail ride.

                        @sirgu That Vendetta looks pretty cool. I think it might need a little refinement, but if it can be made as durable as a OW, a lot of people would probably like it. Personally, I would miss the carvability of the OW.

                          @lia This is interesting, 3 wheels though. Looks like the builder went through many prototypes.

                                @sirgu I'm still try to figure out how the steering works, lots of monkey motion going on.

                                  it doesn't turn like a onewheel or a snowboard with that mod. Maybe if wheel was between the feet.

                                  carving turns all year round

                                      @sirgu Haha! Lots ot work went into that build. Looks like hoverboard electronics.

                                        @sirgu That is totally ridiculous, and I love every second of it.

                                          @sirgu that has to be fake
                                          Like, no way that tiny-ass motor from the hoverboard is moving a wheel that big
                                          Right..?!

                                          ouh nouh

                                          113 volts?! I could lick that!
