Would you try a hover board if they were available?

I haven't roller-skated or -bladed in decades. I probably could still do it (did it on occasion up through high school)---------one presumes it's a bit like riding a bike or pogo-stick, where you never really forget how.

I can't skateboard at all. And if I could, I wouldn't try hoverboarding, because I want to live. I mean, if people can break their arms and ankles and all just wiping out on a regular skateboard, imagine how much worse it would be if they wiped out whilst hovering ten-fifteen feet in the air. Helmet and pads don't help much if you fall off your board and get impaled on a decorative wrought-iron fence.

I can roller skate badly. I can ice skate badly. I've never tried combining them (rollerblading) though.
I can't skateboard either.
I wouldn't want a hover board; I'd want a hover scooter. Something with a handlebar.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"
