HOVERSURF HOVERBIKE IS THE MOST LETHAL
THING YET
I
f motorcycles and living are
just too boring for you, we
might have the solution. This is
the Scorpion-3, designed by
Russian drone manufacturer
Hoversurf. The machine uses
four helicopter-style blades, two
at each end of the vehicle, to lift
you away from terra firma and
onto the path of what appears
to be certain and catastrophic
pain, although maybe we're be-
ing a bit cautious.
The company wants to build
an "extreme sports instrument"
for your riding/flying pleasure.
No doubt they got the "extreme"
part of the brief correct, but
we'll wait until they at least put a
cover on the blades before we
take up the hoverbike challenge.
