to create the real flying broom, alessandro russo silveira turns an electric unicycle into a magic broomstick. the device – measuring 51cm in length – is made from carbon steel with electrostatic painting, and it is fitted with a small saddle seat to make for a much more comfortable ride. it attaches, as well as detaches, on top of an electric unicycle and a supporting frame. the rider simply leans forward to accelerate and leans backward to brake again.
