Now that's pretty cool. Make one that hovers about 3 feet off the ground, and I'll be impressed. It's about the same principals of Air Hockey.

My son is 70 pounds, so do you think the hoverboard you made in the first video can work on gravel and pavement, without ripping or falling apart, with him standing, and a 200 mph air speed leaf blower?
-Thanks.

Thats pretty much as high as you can get it. Any higher and you lose the pocket of air underneath and also there would be no balance. And you have to be on a flat surface. If you go on the street, it will quickly get torn and stuff.

could you put a light/thin plastic type material on top of the pond liner to keep it from riping

For part 2 I think if you weigh a lot less it would work or if you add more engines.

DeepDarkz (2) 11/23/09 3:08 PM
If you constructed an engine out of something else it would probably work better. Like, a lighter metal.

DeepDarkz (2) 11/23/09 3:28 PM
Wait, isn't grommet a cartoon dog?
+2
HartKat (15) 11/25/09 8:20 AM
Yah I think so.

If you used aluminum it might work better.

you could leave a lot of extra bag hanging off to make it go higher
