    Take them on the freeway or a city road, I’m sure the self-driving cars will recognize and stop for you….

    I was stoked for this until I noticed the wires and fanny pack setup. If these were stand alone ( without the wiring and fanny pack ) I would get some for sure. Maybe in a year or two.

      Yeah those wires are very unelegant

    • Ben Milford

      Yup. Super big no.

      If you want a quarter mile range, or extra weight on the boots, then sure, get rid of the wires.

      Why not just run the wires inside the pants legs ????????‍♂️ seems like an idea

    Why are they doing this? Inline skates are already great like bike and skateboard were before all that E-crap . So wasteful, infinitely more dangerous and they keep you weak. Ditch those batteries use your leg .

      It’s called YOU ARE NOT THE TARGET AUDIENCE for this product!!!

      ????????????

      Go outside and touch some grass.

    These are in the same spirit as E-bikes–a little bit of effort on your part, with some assist from a motor. As I watched you trying not to fall, it occurred to me that this company should make something like cross country ski poles to go along with the skates. They’d help you balance much more easily, making it more likely that you’ll actually use these skates, get outside and get some fresh air and exercise.

    U have to carry a battery? Epic fail.

    She made it look bad. Is it bad? ????

    this is a stupid idea

  17. Drake_H_Seattle

    They’re not wireless!!! It’s 2023 we can make tiny wireless AirPods with noise cancellation, but your motorized roller skates, sorry.

    I want that motorized wheel well more like a few dozen. So. Many cols things I could build with those.

    I don’t know how to skate but can’t let a helmet ruin my hair!

  21. frumS relliK

    January 6, 2023 at 12:41 am

    Ok, try.
    but
    if you are going to put electricity in the skates
    you need to put lights in the wheels.

    “Buy Now”?? I don’t think you have seen my bank account yet. LOL

  23. ronch182

    Those are dangerous if you’re not already a competent online skater. Also demoing them in carpet? Yes it’s more safe but it’s really showing off the product.

    If anyone ever rollerskate/blade, you know just standing around with those heavy bootd are tiring.

This new way of treating depression starts with rewiring the brain #TEDTalks

The idea that depression comes from a chemical imbalance in the brain has shaped treatment for decades. Neuroscientist Lisa Monteggia shares research suggesting that’s not the whole story — and shows how a decades-old drug could upend what we thought we knew about depression, with the potential to offer relief within hours.
