Electric skateboard designed for off-road use (Video)

Track One from Flux Design may be inspired by a skateboard but takes that whole idea off the road and into just any terrain. The wheels are in fact fat tires and a track with electric motor pushes the board forward when asked so remotely.

The rider simply has to lean in to steer and the company from Seattle says the board can climb hills up to a 50% grade. We are inclined to believe that.
