Someone I met on the net from Belgium that liked the Jet Luge has been busy prototyping another landcraft. This is prototype #2 with a few parts missing. Powered by a Simjet Nexus 3000. All of the jet related parts and fuel tank are molded into this piece. Can you guess what it is?

Bob

Snow board??????????????

Is that the whole thing or just the fuel tank?

its the jetrunner proto ll

Lol that plate on the front end of it looks like part of a coffee maker....perhaps the turbines exhaust is actually faced toward the front to heat up a nice pot!

No No and No... well this hint may give it away.. but there are few parts missing (not many) one thing is the wheels.

I would have guessed a working model of a new Back to the Future Hover Board, but it is not that either

Skateboard???

Kevin

Im building the Titan Powered Skateboard...

I'm not sure, but I think George Jetson rides one........

Jet scooter perhaps?

it's a combination cutting board, blender, deep fryer all in one!

Theres actually a French term for this already..

Plaster of Paris..

I was going to say Hovercraft, but seems has been disallowed.......

Wheels, so I am going to say a Grass Ski or Mountain Board!!!

Gazzer

jet powered luge?

I say skateboard too!

Seems that a Jet Scooter is the Win. Jet Powered Razor, Step, Ped. what ever you call it where you live. Just add 2 wheels and the handlebar with the controls. I will post pictures and vid when he is finished. I wished I knew how to make things from composites like this.. I could knock 12 lbs or so off the luge.


bob

Someone take LugeBobs hint please,

He deserves some support!!!

If I was qualified, capable and local, I'd help you but it needs to be morale support only I am afraid Bob![&o]

Lemme tell ya somethin'----I was the skateboard shiznit when the X-Games were 10-15 years away...Tony Hawk ain't got nuttin' on me!! Half pipe---Bowls---Jumpin' MG Midgets in a single bound---You gotta let me ride this thing!!!---Hell...I'm 44 years old and can still do several 360's on a board....How about it?!?!?!?!????

Kevin

Heck 44 is still young in the speedboard world, but we don't do 360's. I will let you ride when you are ready to put the full leathers and helmet on and skate downhill at 65+ mph in traffic with no engine.... Call it the Jet Skateboard Waiver Test.

here is a training video for ya Kevin Just a little ditty of what we do near Rio.

I like the vid....When I was 16 years old I was clocked at 42 MPH by the local police skating down the steep end of a viaduct that crossed over some RR tracks----The speed limit was 35. The board was nothing special, Kryptonite wheels, Tracker wide trucks for bowl riding, and a Sims 36" laminated board. No leathers just a T-shirt and shorts, some knee/elbow pads, and a light helmet--I look back on all of it and wonder at times how I didn't get killed.. If I had a steeper hill around here I would have skated it...Have you ever had the board start to violently oscillate (We called it the wobbles) at high speed??? The first time it happened to me I got thrown off the board and wound up with a severe case of road rash..From then on I made sure that I carried a wrench to tighten up the trucks before a speed run.

Keep us posted on the JetSkate!!!

Kevin

I saw one in the 'Back to the future' flick.

Slap a tubine on this

Well, keeping in the tradition of Mr Skywalker Jet Pack man, I thought I would go this direction...

lugebob,

Holy Cow! Look at the right trim in that rudder! Must be a lot of torque to couteract...
