clearing some things up...
 
Hey there,
this is Josh from axonracing.com
Just want to clear a few things up. First of all we wanted to differentiate from hovercraft because our vehicle is not meant for water, mainly meant for pavement and other solid surfaces. It will go through big puddles but not open water. It doesn't have the ugly rubber inflateable raft thing at the bottom that hovercrafts have.

The crazy jump was one of my early prototypes. It rolled a few times and actually landed right side up both times but the hood fell off. We aren't using the same method to attach the hoods anymore. Either way both times it jumped it drove away fine after. Thats one great thing about lexan and durable foam!

The music in the vid is a remix of Mason's Exceeder track.
I'm going to remove the earlier jumping video so that people don't confuse that one with the production model which is much more refined.
Hope that helps!
-Josh

if you've invented an anti-gravity drive system you should market it, when will we see the new anti gravity skate boards? :p

:D
