That...is...so...................COOOOOOLLLLLL!!!!

:china:

You can actually jump on those things! I would never have expected that. How much does each unit cost?

p.s. I think those are used by the U.S. military. You can see "mei guo" or America at the bottom left corner.

Anybody know where we can see this video on the internet? Maybe we can learn a little more and if they can be bought somewhere. I can see the next X Games sport.

Main site includes a video of it.

It's not used by the US military. :rofl: . Not yet anyway. .

I read about these things last week on Gizmodo.

I wonder if the PLA bought some. I was wondering if there was going to be a sniper rifle attachment for a moment.

Being able to accurately hit something while riding that thing, even when it is standing still, might be a challenge (mainly being seen by everyone from a mile away).

I was making fun of how it seems every ATV China shows off has a mount for a .50 sniper rife. I was humorously expecting to see one on here and I can still imagine it being a steady base for one.

Richard Fisher is going to have conniptions again once he hears about it.
