Canadian Guy Wins Farthest journey by hoverboard - Guinness World Records

The machine for this real-life hoverboard was built and designed by Catalin Alexandru Duru himself, the guy who won the Guinness World Records Title for the Farthest Journey by Hoverboard. Yes, they have a category for that. He hovered a distance of 275.9 m (905 ft 2 in) at Lake Ouareau in Quebec, Canada on 25 August 2014. The distance is equivalent to roughly about two full-sized football pitches...

The first real-life hoverboard. The machine was built and designed by me, Catalin Alexandru Duru. I am the first man to create and fly a working prototype.
I will showcase that stable flight can be achieved with a machine one can stand on and control with their feet, just like in the movie "Back to the Future Part II". In our case, the machine is propeller-based.
The prototype can be used anywhere, but is usually tested over water because of how dangerously high it can fly (which is ironic considering that the movie joked that it can't).
