Segway Golf Carts!

You know, I really, really love golf because I’ve been playing for over 20+ years and this latest Segway will be the most awesome addition to golfers everywhere in the world, the Segway Golf Cart!

Why?

With the Segway golf cart, every individ

I’ve probably spent at least a hundred buck at Zoltar machines throughout my life wondering what my future will hold.  Well, that very Zoltar machine probably doesn’t work but here’s a fun way to make your own Zoltar Vehicle that can get you plenty of attention.

Now I wonder, if anyone inserted some dollar bills for their fortune?

Since Zoltar would be mounted on my segway i2, it adding several factors to the equation like balance, and wind resistance, pitch and yaw and driver (rider) safety.

Segway DIY – How to Build a Legway, the Poor Man’s Segway!

I personally think Segways can be useful in some highly populated areas such as downtown San Francisco/LA/New York, but these things are probably a waste of resources otherwise.  If you cannot afford a real segway, there’s a much more eco-friendly option of building your own  “Legway”, it doesn’t really work well on turns but heck, sure beats buying a segway for no reason.

Toyota’s Segway Killer – The Toyota Winglet!

video://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AA3MX7pzdk0

Check out this cool Toyota Winglet, pretty much a miniture-version of the Segway.  This Winglet might do really well since it’s smaller and perhaps cheaper than Segway.

Toyota is planning to s

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…)

Wow, check out this awesome homemade balancing skateboard. As a skateboarder myself, this is way too cool…

It’s very similar to a snowboard to ride, requiring no user input other than the movement of your body mass. Leaning forwards and backwards controls the velocity and moving your weight from heal to toe controls the turn radius. It’s easy and very intuitive to ride.
