The marketing video is very cringe-inducing for me as well. I think that any time you're playing music over video, there's something in the real sound that you're trying to hide. I would not be surprised if these were annoyingly loud.

I'm still looking for a compact, possibly wearable short-medium distance personal transport. The sort of thing that lets you go further than walking when you get off a bus or tram (where you're unable to take a bike).

What disadvantages are there in taking something like Boosted Boards and making it smaller?

I don't know, I'm not a hardware guy. Battery capacity would probably suffer, limiting range. Seems like a decent idea.

I meant the board itself rather than everything. They're using a specific form-factor which might be unnecessary for people who aren't interested in longboards?
