From Arca Space Corporation in New Mexico, who has experience in space rockets, comes the Arcaboard. Dumitru Popescu, CEO of ARCA Space Corporation said...
“ArcaBoard represents a revolution in motion. For the last 17 years we have developed aerospace technologies that looked to the sky. We took our knowledge and applied it to everyone’s dreams. Dreams of flying,”
Making the claim of twenty minutes of practice and learning to balance your movements upon the board, and you are ready to fly. Critics remark that putting enough high powered fans under a mattress will surely lift it off the ground as if it is not ingenious. I'm not sure that how it works is as relevant as does it work. This DOES work.
The retail price began at $19,900 and is now available for $14,900.00 according to their website.
The docking station for quick charges goes for $4500.00
The company announced it had gone in to production in April 2016 with deliveries expected in May 2016.
Yet, when traversing the website to the purchase button, to get an actual delivery date, it says the product is no longer available. No explanation. We have reached out to the company for more information and await a reply.
