oh i did this with an iceboat as a kid. the speeds you can get up to are insane. i don't know if the wheeled ones have as low friction as the ones on skates but the learner model i tried easily got up to 80-100km/h without me doing anything. one of the coolest things i've ever done.

What in the fuck. This whole concept of sailing not in water is brand new to me.

Will you please bless me with some cool videos exposing how that even works?
