HOVERBOARD CATCHES FIRE: is it REAL or CREATED danger?

HOVERBOARD CATCHES FIRE: is it REAL or CREATED danger?




The hoverboard was undeniably the breakout gadget of 2015 and remains very popular in the beginning of 2016.

The news has been overrun the past few weeks with stories of hoverboards causing frightening fires and explosions.

Why are hoverboards exploding?
The main reason hoverboards have self-destructed is because of their batteries. Most of hoverboard producers use rechargeable lithium-ion batteries for power, and those can be dangerous for two reasons: cheapness and mistreatment.
Li-ion batteries are used in everyday devices such as mobile devices and tablets, but typically the companies making those devices can afford to use higher-quality, more expensive batteries. You won't be able to tell how good the li-ion batteries are in your hoverboard, but it's safe to say that cheaper, "knockoff" hoverboards use mass-produced cells of lower quality to cut costs.
Also hoverboard batteries are typically placed inside the footrest of the device, so they're getting stepped on, kicked, and roughed-up every time you go for a ride. It is obvious that hoverboards are going to be abused more than, say, your laptop, so there's a greater chance its battery could get damaged by rough play, and any damage makes them more susceptible to malfunction or explosion.


In the end of 2015 after one of the most popular hoverboards caught fire and damaged someone's home, Amazon pulled the hoverboard from its website, but it has since been brought back. 

Acoording to CNET, On Tuesday (22-FEB-2016), Amazon.com pulled all its hoverboards from its website, leaving only accessories such as decals and wheels still available. More details here: http://www.cnet.com/news/amazon-hoverboard-fire-risk-sales-no-more/



IS IT RIGHT TO SAY, that HOVERBOARD UNSAFE                                               or even DANGEROUS ITEM?

Hoverboard is a new product on the market, which opened a new era in transport. Can we make rush conclusion on the basis of few examples and claim that all hoverboards are unsafe?


HOVERBOARD vs CAR: is a car safe comparing with hoverboard? Have anyone even count how many car accidents occurs every minute around the world and in US particularly? Not to say about pollution and endless traffic jams, when hoverboard is environmentally friendly item.


We welcome your comments, ideas, critics!

         HOVERBOARD: YOUR LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE!



This morning I got up too late and was rushing to the office, but in the middle of the way I stopped as my attention was attracted by a guy who was walking his dog and riding a hoverboard! I could not help my self and run after him just to say that it is so amazing! Can you imagine my surprise when he told me that his girlfriend cook riding a hoverboard! He also shared with me that for them hoverboard is the same regular daily item like, say, mobile devise or cattle. 

I saw people dancing riding a hoverboard or making different tricks with their hoverboards such as playing football or even basketball, jumping. 



I invite everyone to share YOUR HOVERBOARD RIDING experience! 
Let’s stay in touch!

Wanna something more than simple riding straight or turning around? 
Here we prepared easy and advanced tricks for you to do on your hoverboard.



Once feel confident on a hoverboard, most of people are learning how to ride through small narrow space. This trick is called the Rip Stick. 

To do this trick you need a space that is smaller than the width of the hoverboard. First turn your hoverboard sideways, then start moving your hoverboard forward and backward in short “S”. 


Succeeded with the Rip Stick? Congrats! Now try to make the Figure 8!

Imagine that you want to write a number 8 on the floor with help of your hoverboard. Slide forward roughly a foot whilst turning and then backward while turning. This turn will help you move into a different direction when you go forward again. At the end of four full sets, you will have done an “x” or a figure 8-type motion. 


The figure 8 is done? Still wanna try something more advanced? Then try 180 and 360 motion! 

The 180 is pretty simple, but the 360 is a bit more advanced! Begin moving backwards and then turn 180 degrees and move forward. This is pretty simple, but for a more advanced movement, you want to move backward, turn 360 degrees and continue this.
