Electric Wheel at Wildwood


https://vimeo.com/94751101

Everyone will remember this cool invention from Wildwood. I promised to share this footage with the creator, but lost his contact info. Please forward the link if you know how to get in touch.

Cheers!

Chris

I am still wondering if you could make something similar with a barrow and dropped foot plates off the axle. No motor just wind powered .

Has anybody who has tried this think you can do it without the wheel powered ? Only kite power.



Kites: 2.5m Profoil , Quadrifoil XL kitesurfer, NPW 5 Danger.
Flexifoil: 1.7m Sting, 4.9m Blade 3, 9m Blade 2.
Flysurfer : 19m Speed 2 SA, 7m Pulse
Peter Lynn :18m Phantom, 15m Synergy, 10m Synergy, 1200 Farc, 460 Sarc, 130 Tarc, 5m Peel, 4.2m , 6.4, 8.5 C-Quads, 3.5 LS2 single skin.

Rides: Flexi / P.L. Frankin'Buggy , Shaped + straight skiis, sand skis, Coyote blades. Core 95 ATB. RKB R2 ATB .

Blade,
the Solowheel is not only motorized, it also has gyro stabilization. (Think "Segway" without all the "extra" stuff like handles and an additional wheel.)
