I've riden one of the "hoverboards" (if you're talking about those), they're not that hard once u get the hang of it, which doesn't take long. Skateboards are waaaaaay harder.
I'm assuming OP meant how everyone wishes for hoverboards (actual fucking BttF hoverboards), yet most people can't ride an actual skateboard, so they probably wouldn't handle a hoverboard if it came to exist.
But its just a guests opinion :)
I don't have to know how to use a morse code transmitter for a telegram if I want to send a text.
