What kid wouldn't love to get this under the tree? Hammacher Schlemmer, the company you only hear about once a year in funny expensive-Christmas-toy stories like this one, is selling a motorized skateboard that can travel at up to 19 miles per hour.
Get ready to move, because the skateboard is powered by a 36-volt battery, and its 600-watt motor reaches top speed in only four seconds. It even has enough horsepower to propel you uphill (although I suspect it would be chugging kind of slowly if I were on it). The rider controls acceleration and braking with a wireless trigger remote. Power it with a rechargeable battery with a 10 mile range.
The skateboard weighs 40 pounds and can handle riders up to 225 pounds. Get it at Hammacher Schlemmer for $599.95.
