Lexus Teases a Luxury-Built Hoverboard Using Magnetic Levitation and Nitrogen-Cooled Superconductors

Lexus has teased a luxury-built hoverboard called the Slide that they claim floats using magnetic levitation and nitrogen-cooled superconductors. The hoverboard is seen floating without a rider in a teaser video, and in a separate video, professional skateboarder Ross McGouran talks about what it's like riding the device.
The Slide hoverboard is built from many of the same materials as Lexus cars, and the company promises to show it in action with McGouran riding on August 5, 2015.
