There are devices now days that are similar, but they are very bulky, expensive, and do not work magnetically, or with antigravity, but with thrust vectoring nozzles. A hoverboard as seen in the back to the future movies is several decades in the future if possible.
figure it out by watching back to the future
the energy of the future will probably be magnetic because hoverboards hover lol XD yolo
As of March 2014, hoverboards are not being sold.
They're only available in the past. Hurry and level up past 5, then you are transported to the past.
yes they do Actually the hoverboards of Treasure Planet do not exist in real life. Right now the only hoverboards you will find are air cushion hoverboards which hover but are unstable and wobbly and noisy. You can also ride a crane hoverboard prop or a zipline hoverboard prop. Also a ducted fan hoverboard did exist back in 1955 called the Hiller Flying Platform. Which was tested by the US army to see if it was air worthy, but due to the instability balance and the danger it was, it was considered a failure by the US army. There is a Cyber Surfer Hoverboard toy that uses ducted fans but you can't ride it because it's made out of Styrofoam. Also a maglev hoverboard was made in France and also in South Korea. It is uncertain when scientist will start researching and building a Treasure Planet hoverboard. If it does get made then the air cushion hoverboards will become obsolete. As for the hoverboard featured in "The Jetsons", "Back to the Future 2", "Pinocchio 3000", "Treasure Planet", "Wreck it Ralph", "Spider-man 3" It doesn't exist right now and we're not likely to get a hoverboard by the year 2015.
The lithium ion batteries in hoverboards catch fire and sometimes explode.
Sometimes hoverboards can catch on fire or overload so it is very dangerous to ride hoverboards.

Yes.. A (as far as I know one) hover board exists. However they are not like "Back To The Future" Hover boards, you can not stand on them or ride them... they simply hover.. nothing more nothing less. And as far as I know you can not buy them.
The very first hoverboards that was shown was in the 1962 cartoon TV show "The Jetsons". They were used in episodes including "A Date with Jet Screamer" "A visit from Grandpa" "Elroy's Mob" Later on in Season 2 of the 1980s hoverboards were used in "Elroy Meets Orbitty" Also they were used in the movie "Rockin' with Judy Jetson" and "The Jetsons movie" The hoverboard that really introduced people was a popular PG-13 teen movie "Back to the Future 2" in 1989 as well as the NES game "Back to the Future II & III" Also hoverboards were also used in Later TV shows and movies such as "Reboot", "Johnny Quest", "Butt-Ugly Martians", "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Fast Forward", "Treasure Planet", "Pinocchio 3000" and "Wreck it Ralph". Hoverboards were even in video games like "Streak: Hoverboard Racing PS1, Final Fantasy VIII, Trickstyle PC, Beam Breakers, Eyetoy: Antigrav, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 4 Turtles in Time SNES and Battle Nexus GC and PS2, "Treasure Planet PS1 and PS2 and Sonic Riders Zero gravity. I hope that answered your question on Hoverboard introduction.
Apparently.
