Talking Hover board = fun

I took our grandson to the park the other day and some boys had hover boards with them. Their grand father and I got to talking and they let Rhett try it out. He tried it on his knee's first a few times then I held his hand and he stood up and rode it.
All I herd on the way home was he wanted one! Imagine that...

Well I went yesterday to Wal-Mart and got him one. He started riding it around 3pm, the rest is history, this 4 year old has mastered the thing in less than 24hrs!

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: Hover board = fun

Agreed. I've seen too many videos of adults busting their arses on those things. You could crack a skull very easy.

Yes he will be getting a helmet before he can ride it outside. We just wanted to make sure he could ride it before he gets all his gear.

It's only good for 135lbs so no I want even try to ride it. I wouldn't anyway but that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

I walked in the house yesterday and he was riding it while looking at his tablet. He never missed a beat. But I finally stopped him and told him no more riding and doing something else. It was cool he could but I know what can happen so it want happen anymore while I'm watching him ride anyway.
