Petrol-Powered Snowboard
In an age when petrol vehicles are going out of fashion very quickly, a petroleum-driven snowboard might seem a little backward. However, despite its motive technology, and the fact it looks faintly ridiculous, it has fun written all over it. On the downside, it could be rather cumbersome to get to your Alpine chalet.
