: a vehicle in the shape of a board that floats above the ground and is propelled without the use of wheels
Technically, a hoverboard is a levitating platform (that looks like a skateboard without wheels) that can be used for personal transportation. The term was invented for the movie Back to the Future II, where protagonist Marty McFly travels into the future to discover that teenagers are riding on levitating boards without wheels.—👁 Image Michael Nuñez
