hoverglide has been dubbed the world’s first ‘floating’ backpack, and has been military-tested to reduce impact forces up to 86%. the backpack — whose features and functions are best explained through the video above — is equipped with suspended load technology that significantly minimizes the stress of weight on the wearer’s back, neck, knees, and ankles as they walk or run.
for those who hike, travel, commute or train athletically, hoverglide by lightning packs promises to decrease the potential for injury through its patented double-frame and pulley system design. essentially, the ‘pack’ part of the bag sits on rails that slowly and ergonomically glide it up-and-down as the wearer walks or runs. this suspended load design and technology is currently undergoing operational testing by the US army and marine corps. 4 styles — ranging in weight load capability from 28 liters to 55 liters — offer a variety of functions for the casual or athletic user. stay tuned, as hoverglide plans to launch on kickstarter soon.

Love it! Great job
Those movements can also generate elecricity.
Bet your working on that now !!!!
The jumping jacks really show how comfortable the backpack can be 😉
Those goofballs are serving their country, Jim. Have you ever thrown a 40lb ruck on and went for a run up and down hills? Well, rest assured their are soldiers doing it every day. Try throwing that ruck on, loading it with 60lbs and grab yourself a sledge hammer to carry with you. Now plot a course over a hilly road for at least 12km. Now ask yourself if you could use a product like this and tell us again how it’s a problem that doesnt need solving.
I do not know about the jumping jack thing JimCan…but a lot of potential users come to mind who could use less strain on their backs. Military, Kids late for school, elderly, trail Runners/ Adventure Racers, Forest service/ Trail Crews/ Hunters hauling game/ forest fire crews. Ergonomic design is in a lot of products….and it can be adapted in a lot of ways. Whats the big deal?
What sort of goofball does Jumping Jacks with a pack? …’another problem not needing to be solved.
