The Lexus Hoverboard is here: watch as it flies around a skatepark and over water

The Lexus Hoverboard is here, after weeks of teasing, the SLIDE has arrived. Made of natural bamboo and weighing in at 25 pounds, Marty McFly’s dream has come true. Lexus released a video this morning showing professional skateboarders flying around a park while they hovered over water and concrete alike.

The hoverboard isn’t going to just go out on the street though, Lexus designed the track in the video specifically for the SLIDE with tracks of magnets to keep the board going. Regardless, it’s pretty sick.
