As I mentioned in the previous post, after the other day's visit to the far-west-Kyoto mountain Konzou Temple, we scooted over to a park in Otsu City. There were some rollerbladers, which is not uncommon for that park on a weekend, but they included one not quite of this world...

This is by far the coolest blade ever. It’s a good thing he did not fire the jetpack and went away once you started shooting
