It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I can't work out how this thing operates as a skateboard. How the fuck do you turn without bottoming the rail things out every time? take silly wide shallow turns?
how the fuck do you write this much about a design when it obviously doesn't work as the thing it's intended to be?
That's the neat part: It doesn't!

It turns the wheels, based on this image. It's not a skateboard, it's an rc car you stand on top of.
And if you look at that image for more than a second, you'll see that it's just car parts scaled down to a scale that wouldn't be physically possible. That brace caliper assembly is the size of a thumbnail.
TYVM, didn't see that ridiculous tiny brembo dear lord what a strange thing
Even if that system could work reliably, it would handle worse than a normal skateboard and those weird... I don't know, fenders I guess? Whatever they are, they'd pose a serious hazard for catching on debris.
and curbs, and cracks, and leaves and god knows what else... designed to fling the rider violently away from the deck
