What do you get when you cross a chair with a skateboard? The Isukebo [JP] of course, as manufactured by Japan-based RollingFoot. It’s essentially more of a chair with wheels that you can navigate like riding on a skateboard, foot brake included.
Just push against the floor with your feet in order to move forward or shift your body weight to the left or right if you want to change direction.
And no, the Isukebo is no gag product or design prototype. You can order it (if you live in Japan) for $650, but allow 2 weeks for delivery (it’s made to order).
If you prefer a more comfortable alternative, why not go for this one [JP] (available for the same prize):
