TechCrunch reported on receiving an invitation to a Nike event taking place in Los Angeles today, where Nike would announce the release of the Air Mags, the self-lacing shoes that first made their appearance in Back to the Future II."

      Is it just me or does having to hover over a ball of lightning make the hoverboards seem even more awesome?

    Probably the same value as pumps, air, shox, lights, neon, pockets, gels, etc. About $50 on the pricetag. Value!
