I was reading this interview on the site.

And he talks about water skii bikes, dinosaurs that shoot, and other stuff that we can control. This sounds awesome and I really want to try this out. What missions can we use these things in? I haven't been able to find them. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Episode one, unfortunately. I did hear they're bringing airboards to the Dengeki Carnival, which should happen sometime in the summer.

They're not excellent, but they do provide an interesting change of pace. I'd like to see some in later missions as well. I always thought it'd be fun to have a FLoader race on the Neudaizian oceans.

Air boards? Sweet! Justa travel boost or can we fight while on them?

Ohh actual races sound fun. Better than just a surfing around the lobby novelty.

Although it'd be cool to pull them out and ride around in lobbies. :disapprove:

You can pilot the Lunga, Floader, and Striker in PSU's offline Story Mode (first game). For online mode, you'll be able to pilot an Airboard (same controls as Floader) in an upcoming event. The Striker has yet to be released online. However, I do have some old preview videos showing two people controlling it at one time.

Pics or it never happened (LOL J/K)
OK seriously, do you still have those or where can I see them, because frankly, I'm curious how 2 people can pilot a vehicle in this game.
