Hendo Hoverboard named after its inventor, Greg Henderson uses the same kind of electromagnetic levitation that allows maglev trains to buzz through the countryside at 300 mph. The main caveat is that, as with all forms of magnetic levitation, you need a special surface for the magnets to push against, you can’t just take your maglev train or Hendo hoverboard and levitate over concrete, wood, or water.
