Aside from an Ebola vaccine, a greenhouse gas eliminator and a vibrator that you can actually feel, there's only one technological innovation today's futuristic society is currently lacking: a hoverboard. But, thanks to a Kickstarter from Hendo Hoverboards, that last thing has moved from science's "To do" list, to the "Done, bitch" pile. That's because Hendo, ladies and gentleman, has created the world's first real hoverboard.

Aside from an Ebola vaccine, a greenhouse gas eliminator and a vibrator that you can actually feel, there's only one technological innovation today's futuristic society is currently lacking: a hoverboard. But, thanks to a Kickstarter from Hendo Hoverboards, that last thing has moved from science's "To do" list, to the "Done, bitch" pile. That's because Hendo, ladies and gentleman, has created the world's first real hoverboard.

Someone call Marty McFly in 1985!

The Hendo hoverboard is currently for sale on a Kickstarter launched by its creators, married couple of the century Greg and Jill Henderson. Damn. We wonder what their sex life is like … Anyway, the site advertises "the world's first REAL hoverboard," for the low, low price of just $10,000 … or the equivalent of the country of Hondras in pesos.

But although there's been several hoverboard hoaxes over the last few years, the Hendo proves that hoverboard technology is real. And they have a video to prove it.

The thing floats using four disc-shaped hover engines, which push against one another to create a bubble of magnetic force between the ground and the board. The height of the force is only about an inch high, but that's okay because midgets need hoverboards too. There's a bunch of stabalizing apparati inside the board as well, which will keep your large American girth from flipping over onto your large American ass.

Well, that answers Insane Clown Posse's question, "Fucking magnets, how do they work?" Don't ask us how we know that.

Hendo says that their new magnetic engine is a more sustainable, affordable option than traditional engines too. You just can't lose with this one.

However, the biggest bummer about the Hendo is that, in its current form, it can only hover over surfaces that are non-ferromagnetic conductors such as copper plating. Which means you can't really just ride it around willy nilly.

Thankfully, the people at Hendo have a pretty badass solution to that problem: a specialized hoverboard skate park … or "hoverpark" as they're calling it. 

"One day we expect to have hoverboards that can effortlessly float over any medium (even water!)," they say, but in the meantime, you'll have to kick flip this:

The park is actually what the Kickstarter is asking for donations for. Having a place where people can ride 'till the die is imperative for continuing research on hover technology; the more people they can get skating their park, the more research they can do about making your daily commute a hovering experience.

So far, their Kickstarter has exceed their goal of $250,000 by more than $120,000 for a grand total of $372,831 at press time, which means that dream is well on its way to becoming a reality.

The only problem is, skaters hate it.

When we asked one of our friends who skates if they'd ride the hoverpark, he told us to "Fuck ourselves" and "seriously fuck ourselves."

Fine. Whatever, Scotty. You're not ready for the future.

Anyway, here's a handy dandy graphic of what goes on in Hendo world:

Actually … we would love an explanation for the Hendo being "Super Cool," but that's for another time.

But regardless of whether you're ready to embrace the future and bring Hendo into your "super cool" life, or if you think that announcing Hendo as the world's first hoverboard when it can only move around on a special skatepark is a little premature, one thing's for sure.

Hoverboards exist. And you can have one if you're rich.

And you can have a job at Rooster if you have one. We think it would really sexify the process of re-filling our magazine kiosks. Mmm.
