looks like almost everybody has given up on this. no matter. i already gather enough data about everything else(but the engine), once i found the right engine, i'll post it here. it doesn't matter if no one gonna read it, as long as i do what i think is right. 🙁

using two engine will consume more power, using for wheel will need more engine/power to move it. unless we could fit a transformer in it, we still have power source and engine to dissuss about.

4 Wheel tank type like Buccha would give us more space to hide mechanism inside...., also solve some of the safety/support issue by widening base and adding stability.

somehow, i got a bad feeling that if we do succeed in making a trek, and it actually works to some extend, we're gonna have idiots (plenty out there) who puts them on then just from a 20 story building or try to ride down a 40 ft wall ><

you know those people are out there

Hiya! sort of new here, im about to start a community in sweden atm, which will work on simpel Air Trek,
putting on inlines and simply challenge others in our region,
we are about to create a website so that we will be able to start the ranking and get some real emblems, and atm we are up to 97 teams,
with around 3+ people in the teams, mostly from 15 to 18 years old, we have actually done pretty good to recreate the battle's and often people get hurt,
tho ofc not on that caliber from the manga, but we record this and send it around in our little community and everyone is having a good time. But since we simply just ride Agressive Inlines so we can do some tricks, but that wont hold for long until we all want the real deal, and i've cleared threw the whole topic, and i've sort of noticed with todays technology its impossible to have an engine,
and from all the battle's i've played i rather just ride normal Agressive's then have a backpack of batteries. U can still feel the freedom of speed and air with normal agressive's, some things i've learned by now having our "wars" in Stockholm and the battles the human body isnt made of glas, i use a spineguard (a backprotection thingy dont know what its called in english) and some gloves etc, and on my Agressive since they are made for Street Freestyle they only have to wheels to easily grind on bars and so forth and i have a Kizer Suspension fram, i dont take that much "damage" from falling (here is a pic)
http://shop.strato.de/epages/14751698.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/14751698/Products/2000112/SubProducts/2000112-0001&ViewAction=ViewProductDetailImage
Soo, back to the topic, its very much just in the head, sure u can hurt urself alot, but the mind stops u from alot of things that ur body could actually endure, most of the top teams in Stockholm have extended their psychic fear for speed and hight's by just playing with simple Agressive Street inlines, but as i said we are working on a website which is going to become really cool with all the match videos for u to watch, all the teams have become quiet the family and i want to keep it that way, so when im launching the website dont steal everything from us i would really like u guys to come by, [b]I DONT WANT TO STEAL MEMBERS MANGAUPDATES.COM[b] just so u know, but then again back to topic, god im such a sidetracker, i think that it might be smart with that lean thingy, the 100 year old invention, tho if we just renew it, and it could always be better if we could apply more suspension, im not that much of an engineer but i do understand what you guys been talking about and what could not work and what could. So my idea is something of an engine that is built inside the Boot or maybe in the frame, and this engine should work with movement, its not something that just starts with a button but if u start blading it will start a type of accelaration so that the longer u run or the harder u blade u will gain more speed so after blading like 100 meters the engine will simply by movement move on its on for at least 100 meters more, this might sound so fucking stupid but its actually something im just thinking about and i havent tried it or anything but as u might have noticed im a big fan of air gear and i've come far without real AT's so if we just could upgrade normal Aggressive inlines with that kind of engine that gives some "feedback" after blading and a little more suspension and we have reached the second level of AT's. sorry for super long post, and such and everything i said except for my facts that i have a community that actually does "Parts War" is up for discussion.
hope to hear more from u, and dont tell me this isnt impossible we will make it somehow ^^

Can you put any vid of your war on YouTube for us to see a sample? You can make the title a string of numbers w/ no key words so most people won't find it and link here for us only.

I am really interested in your battles. Also, I never researched inline skates too much, and didn't know there was a type of aggressive skate w/ only 2 wheels like that one. This gives me crazy ideas about ours. Also the friction motor is a really good idea.

[Going back to solidworks now to adjust the AT housing I've been working on]

Im gonna Be an engineer so when i am i will make these for everyone to enjoy it will take some time but my friends dad is and engineer and my other friends dad one of them is an asian and is my neighbor but he probably wont do but i bet he could.
And i will make a big Buisness and be rich MUAHAHAHAH!!.
And the wait will be over it will need no remote I will use the idea of the Big toe thing to adjust speed.
But to get a remote is optional but in like watch mode.
Or maybe it could be installed into your cellphone.
i dont still thinkin.
But in 12 years it will come out or less but It will probably be made by then. I hope not i wanna make one for everyone $450 a pair is that good or too cheap? 🤣 😀 🤨 😎

Look guys its really simple. Just do what Johnny Knoxville did and attach bottle rockets to your skates, problem solved, right?

if oh great can read english we really should sent him a copy of this topic XD, haha he prolly would die laughing

i think i just solved the problem of flying with airtreks, as arthur dent says: "The trick to flying is to throw yourself at the ground and miss."

wise indeed...

well i could post up a video on Youtube as u said for you guys to have a sample of our battle's, but as u saw on the pic i posted its a "type" of rollerblade with a customized Frame, which in the pics case is a Kizer Suspension frame which i LOVE it feels like blading on the wind tbh, at least when its good ground. So what kind of battle would u guys to see, Cube? (2 teams 1 ball to walls as goals and pretty rough blading i would call this the most roughest of the types the goals are usually about 300 meters from eachother with alot of terrain between so there is alot of trick paths and then its simply just pass around the ball usually a tennis ball and try to score first to 10.) or Speed Run? (this says itself, simply a first to that position wins best out of the lessest members of the teams, like if there is one team with 3 and the other with 5 then its best of 3.) those are the most popular, hehe or pretty much those we play the most and easiest to play.
I also want to say in forehand that IF i upload a video on Youtube the quality may not be fantastic since we mostly run during night-time for that extra nice feeling and no spectaters like whiny old hags ^^ no offense to all the nice grannys out there lol.
but lets first see if i will get someone to record and ill let u know if ill upload one.

Im Also glad that u got something good out from my post about Aggressive inlines, since they are pretty more stabile and the bigger boot it might help with some space, and i really didnt think you would like the friction idea. ^^ lets keep in touch.
I have loads of trust in you guys and since we share the same dreams, ill gladly give out my hotmail for u guys to contact me more often about news about the project or other. Just PM me

Quick photoshop of Kuorakatsu aggressive skate to look more like AT and space for friction motor.

Any comments are appreciated

amazing, ill gladly let u do that to my "AT's" i actually just came back from a duel against another team, we won after a freakin hot fight, im pretty bruised up tbh ^^ but man did we have fun, tho im sorry that i didnt get to record since we played Cube and that means all 5 of us had to ride, no one could stay on side and cam it. but ill work something out later.
Great Job Vinceasuma, hope we will come up with some more idea's.
