A skateboard that pushes itself?

If you're like us, you saw those Back to The Future movies and dreamed of gliding around on a hoverboard one day. Well, it looks like we're one step closer now with the introduction of the ZBoard. It's a weight-sensing, electric skateboard that pushes itself in whatever direction the rider leans. It's pretty fast too, getting up to about 17 miles an hour.

Ali recently met up with Ben and Jeff from ZBoard at SXSW in Austin. Take a look at the video above to see it in action.
