Thoughts on the GolfBoard (potential replacement to the golf cart)

Anyone heard of this product or have any experience with them? GolfBoard
A local course up in my neck of the woods is getting these soon and I wanted to know if anyone has any experience with them. They seem pretty cool. A review of their website indicates the following:
-goes 14 mph, the same as a traditional electric cart.
-the driver gets a fairly decent workout, as you steer by "surfing" and twisting your body. Described as "a lot more physical" but more fun, like a cross between surfing and skiing.
-Supposed shaves 30+ minutes off a round of golf if four golfers have them (as opposed to two traditional carts).
-all wheel drive, can climb 30 degree grades.
-Costs $6500, though I imagine that will drop significantly in the coming years.

Does it have a weight limit? Asking for a friend.

Video says it can accommodate up to 287 pound golfers.

Looks dumb and will not gain traction.

I used one when I played a round at Menele on Lanai. It took a hole or two to get used to it, but I really enjoyed it. They won’t be good for poor weather (rain/wind days), but they are great on nice weather days.
I played my round solo, and it was special being on a course like that with insane views riding on that vehicle. It’s a different feel than anything else I’ve been on.
If I were with a buddy, I’m not sure how I’d like it. Maybe it would be fun?

No place for the beer cooler and JBL Speaker.
Hard pass.

I played Dubsdread in Orlando a few years back and wanted to rent one instead of a cart but I didn't reserve one in time

The only acceptable replacement to a golf cart.

I think I'd end up doing a kickflip into the water hazard on that one.
