SkyRide Invention Finds A Home
Six years ago we told you about FARM SHOW reader Scott Olson’s amazing pedal-powered SkyRide (Vol. 35, No. 1). At the time, the Waconia, Minn., inventor was looking for a market for the “flying bicycle”, after having failed to land a deal on the TV show Shark Tank. Scott’s not one to give up, having already made a fortune with his invention of Rollerblades a couple decades ago. The SkyRide consists of an overhead monorail with fiberglass pods hanging beneath, powered by pedals and reaching speeds of 15 to 20 mph.
Well, Scott recently made news when Carnival Cruise Lines outfitted one of their newest ships with the SkyRide. It runs around the perimeter of the ship, so riders are hanging 150 ft. above the ocean (you can see a video of the Carnival SkyRide at FARMSHOW.com). Scott isn’t stopping with cruise ships. He’s negotiating with the Minnesota State Fair, the Mall of America, and other venues about installing SkyRides.
