Wow this is so cool

Making it work certainly is more than amazing. The most amazing thing is that guy is able to ride it, it must be ridiculously difficult without friction

Because there is a track beneath the floor, the board's direction is already determined. There are a few parts where he falls off, but the board continues to glide along. He doesn't need to do anything to change direction as the path is decided already

One Journalist isn't very impressed...

Since he doesn't get to glide around like Marty McFly, this guy thinks the whole thing is basically pointless...
