Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0071214A1] A sports vehicle includes a substantially horizontal platform (1) capable of supporting the user and having attached to its underside two or more rotatable disks (2) arranged to rotate about substantially vertical axes (3), the underside of each rotatable disk being substantially convex in form. The platform is resilient and can adopt a convex or concave shape, so as to steer the vehicle. The user places his feet on the platform and steers the vehicle by tilting the platform using his body weight. The vehicle enables its user to travel over grassland and similar terrain in a manner similar to skateboarding and snowboarding.
