Hoverboards

These aren’t your parents’ scooters. The futuristic rideable toys seen in the movies of our youth are here in the present. If you’re looking for new ways to enjoy outdoor recreation, self-balancing scooters are a perfect choice. Unlike other rideables with handlebars, self-balancing hoverboards are hands free and propelled by the inertia of the user. Navigation is controlled while standing on the scooter platform and moving the body slightly in the desired direction. On a single charge, hoverboard scooters can go several miles at speeds ranging from 5 to 10 miles per hour. Many models have built-in Bluetooth speakers so you can listen to music while you ride. Battery chargers are included with each hoverboard and work with the rechargeable batteries to provide endless fun.

Enhance your ride by downloading an app that pairs with your specific model of self-balancing scooter. Most self-balancing scooters have weight and age limit recommendations to ensure optimal performance. There are numerous color options available among several brands, so you’ll be able to find one that fits your style whether you prefer a black hoverboard or a blue hoverboard. Since some riders prefer a hoverboard with handlebars, there are scooter attachments that can add safety, flair and functionality to your scooter.. See our hoverboard buying guide if your not sure which hoverboard is right for your riding style. 

Safety gear and accessories are available to ensure a smooth and enjoyable scooter experience. Protective knee and elbow pads will help prevent injury from falls while learning to ride your scooter. When you’re on the go, a carrying case for your scooter will protect your self-balancing scooter from the elements when not in use, plus it gives you a place to store your charging accessories.

And no outdoor adventure is complete without video evidence. As the saying goes, “If you didn’t record it, did it even happen?” Be sure to take along an action camera to capture the joy of the journey.
