KickStick is a portable electric wheel on a stick that is capable of pushing a skateboard up to 48km/h (30 mph). The robotic oar is designed by Rise Robotics, fitted with a 2.75-horsepower motor, a replaceable batteries, and a wheel at the bottom that can propel the skateboarder.
Rise Robotics will be launching an Indiegogo campaign soon. Watch the video below to see the KickStick in action.
