Chinese SWAT Team trains on Segways

Here’s a humorous pose of the Chinese SWAT team practicing on segways. (Or maybe it was a scene in the movie shooting…)
I really think this is a really good idea as parts of busy Chinese metropolitan streets will let the segway travel much faster than anything other than motorcycles and bikes.
As for shooting shot guns from a segway, I’d have to say you need more training though.

This heavy duty segway features like 6 car rims, which probably slows it down but innovative.

Yet another Segway story
Segways one day will rule the world; they will become aware and eventually rule us humans until we fight back. But until them we can do as we please the Segway and here are a couple of examples that just go to show how good they can look.

These are really customised versions of the two wheeled machine, which I think would surprise many people when they see them.

They have been given custom paint jobs, metal trims and some really great chrome wheels. Plus like the one in the second picture this one has a trailer, which would be great for going down to Wal Mart to get the groceries.

Check out this cool electric skateboard these guys made. Thanks Frank for letting me get on it. I was about to take off with it to my house…
It’s an electric skateboard that goes forwards and backwards by simply putting your weight towards where you want to go. It seems to be using some kind of accelerometer. If they start selling these to kids, these would be way more cool than any Segways for sure.
