How would a scooter like that work? I’m having trouble picturing what you want. How do you want your hands to power it—what kind of input?

I’ve seen guys on skateboards using a long pole to push them along, like a gondola.

Thank you for your interest. I’ve seen prototype hand-powered scooters that use a rowing motion to power the device. But I’ve seen nothing that’s commercially available. Hopefully, someone else has.

The accelerator is in the handle bars.

I think it looks like a board that has a platform about knee high so that you can put a knee on it and push with the other foot.
