suspended below the Airboard shell. In addition to providing an air cushli
ride on the fan also provides a fast stream of air exiting from the rear of
forward thrust - just like a hovercraft. To help provide better acceleratior
includes a unique friction drive wheel at the rear. When the rider wishes
weight transfer is used to bring the friction drive into contact with the gn
friction drive clutch the Airboard can be accelerated forward without losir
above the ground. The control of the Airboard is provided by weight tran
to surfboards, skate boards and snow boards. In operation the Airboard
