super cool: Nils Guadagnin recreated the Hoverboard from Back to The Future II

Remember the Back to The Future trilogy? Well if you don’t, please GET A CLUE before reading the rest of this post, lol. Okay, let’s begin. These 3 movies are a few of my favorite movies starring Michael J. Fox. I loved the concept of the movies when I first saw them, and Back to The Future II happened to be my favorite of the three. I remember thinking, “wouldn’t that be cool to have some of the gadgets from the movie in real life?” Well, obviously Nils Guadagnin thought the same thing, or something along those lines, when he decided to recreate the hoverboard from the second installment of the trilogy…

It’s obviously not just Nils and me that love the gadgets in the movie either, remember Nike made a shoe dedicated to main character, Marty McFly, played by Michael J. Fox?

Anyway, Nils is a young french artist that actually recreated this hoverboard, and the beauty of it is that it really hovers. How’s this done? Well, it works like this: “Integrated into the board and the plinth is an electromagnetic system which levitates the board. A laser system stabilises the object in the air.” Dope, right? Yes, I know…Now how do I get my hands on one?
