Earlier this year, there was some hoopla about the possibility of a real-life hoverboard, but that turned out to be nothing but a hoax. However, it looks like the world may get a pretty cool consolation prize.

This is a water flyboard that lets people looking for a thrill ride on water. It may be the greatest thing since sliced bread. Actually, it may be the greatest thing since someone realized you could put deli meats between sliced bread to make a delicious sandwich.

The truly amazing thing is you can purchase one. Depending on what package you get, you'll pay anywhere between $2,700 and $8,300, but it's totally worth it, right? Times used to be you had to have a cool car to get ladies to notice you, but not even the coolest of cars can capture their attention the way a hoverboard can.
