Is The HUVr Board Real? Tony Hawk & Moby Say It Is

The Hoverboard from Back To The Future has finally arrived, and this time it's real …. right?!

From HUVr Tech, supposedly the product of a 2010 MIT project, comes the HUVr board. Backed by none other than Tony Hawk, Moby, Schoolboy Q, and even the original "Doc" from the movies – Christopher Lloyd. It looks amazing, seems to work a charm, has it's own iPhone app. Seems great right? Well, unsurprisingly most people are more than a little sceptical this is a fake. Hmmm…

As good as it looks – just check out the video above! – ibtimes.co.uk brings us back to reality:

The star studded infomercial is undoubtedly fake as the person playing an engineer in the video (pictured again in a Facebook post) happens to be actor Nelson Chang.

In the video, Tony Hawk, Moby, Terrell Owens and other celebrities met at a Los Angeles parking lot to take the HUVr boards for a test ride.

However, like many of you, we wish that the technology was real. Riding a hoverboard to work every morning is surely a childhood dream that most of us share.

Below are the fictitious features of this wonderful offspring of technology

1) The HUVr board auto balances for you, this way you won't fall off if you loose balance during your ride.

2) It has a smartphone app that will allow you to plan your course around the city.

3) It can fly upto heights of over 10 feet according to what is being shown in the video.

🙁

One of these days Doc, one of these days …
