INTRODUCTION
A NEW TECHNOLOGY, WITH NEW
CONCEPTS FOR CONTROL AND SAFETY
This manual will help you understand, set up and safely use the Razor
®
Hovertrax™. It is important that you adhere to all
safety warnings and cautions that appear throughout and that you use good judgment when riding, so keep reading!
As is obvious the first time you see it, the Razor Hovertrax is different from things you may have ridden before. No
handlebars. No front or rear wheel. No brake. It is new and it moves, which means if you are interested in riding it you
should be interested in learning how to do that properly – and if you are interested in minimizing the risk of falling off or
being injured, you should be very interested in focusing on how to ride this new product as safely as possible. Helping you
do that is the goal of this Manual and other warnings.
THIS PRODUCT IS NEW, IT IS DIFFERENT, BUT IT MOVES
AND YOU MUST UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN ORDER TO MAXIMIZE YOUR FUN AND
MINIMIZE RISKS OF INJURY PRESENTED BY RIDING THIS NEW MOVING PRODUCT.
MOVEMENT OF THE RAZOR HOVERTRAX IS CONTROLLED BY THE ANGLE OF THE FOOT PLATFORMS,
WHICH IS DETERMINED BY PRESSURE APPLIED BY THE RIDER’S FEET ON THE PLATFORMS.
Different? Well, yes, the Hovertrax is “different.” It is an electrically motorized, computerized, gyroscopically-balance-
assisted, independently articulated, dual-platform two wheeled personal mobility system. If that sounds unlike any bicycle,
scooter, RipStik, roller skate or water ski you have ever used, you’re on the right track.
However, the Razor Hovertrax does not operate “magically” and it does not fly, float or disappear. It’s movements are
not controlled remotely, or by the rider’s brainwaves or earnest good wishes. And it has neither a steering wheel, nor
a brake, nor external stabilizers of any kind. Yet it can go, stop, turn and back up – and all of this is controlled solely by
the rider's feet moving at angles relative to the ground.
THIS IS CRUCIAL TO RECOGNIZE AND TO REMEMBER AT
ALL TIMES. The angle of your feet – forward, level or rearward – on each foot platform is how Hovertrax
receives, processes and executes instructions from the rider. This will affect the operation of the Razor
Hovertrax far more than leaning or "shifting body weight" alone.
WARNING:
Read this manual – including both "Safety Warnings" (pages 2-3) and "How to Operate" (pages 6-8)
and learn to ride safely!
