Should have been at FesT
We had two hands free i2s there, gliding all over the place. Then you could have seen them up close and in person!
Next Year! ;-)

Funky-Move has their stainless Steel version of legsteer (which I had the opportunity to try). Though,I think there's a net safety in having handlebars, it's pretty cool. Even for us experienced gliders, it takes a bit of getting used to.
It's available for purchase at Segway of Indiana. -Sal

It's really nifty. Nice mod that really shows off the amazing balancing capabilities of the PT. This was a design which Inc probably abandoned early on. Leg-lean steer actually may be safer than the standard lean steer config, because thiis offers the glider the possibility of jumping forward off the machine in hard stop abnormal situation...assuming you aren't up against the wall I think gurus like Steve Jobs would approve of it as better design - and it pretty much takes the "wings" out of the potentially competing winglet design... Bravo. When where is it available? |

I'm surprised you haven't taken it home. It certainly looks fun.
