Across the world, people are taking to YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram to create pics and vids of themselves zipping around about this 2 wheel contraption which basically seems like a board using a wheel on either side.
A mix of a skateboard as well as a segway, this mini Segway (devoid of the handle) type thing is blowing up in popularity, fuelled in part by the level of celebrities that were seen on one. From Attacking young boys to Soulja Boy, Kendall Jenner to Jamie Foxx, all have tried their hand only at that nifty little gadget, and appear to have had a lots of fun the process.
Nicknamed the ‘swegway’ (as a consequence of it’s likeness on the Segway, but a ‘cooler’ version) we’re not sure entirely where this kind of self balancing scooters originated in or who invented the initial. Almost certainly it originated in some factory in China. The initial glimpses we got than it in the media were an item called the IO Hawk, a scooter that sells for a stunning $1800. This is back January of 2015. Since that time many cheaper versions of the product attended on the market as well as the average price currently looks like it’s around $500.

This may also turn right or left. This self balancing scooters is becoming so well received is in reality being touted because the personal mobility device into the future. Who wishes to walk when it’s possible to glide, right? Plus it is a lot faster than walking, travelling at speeds of 6mph to 10mph.
