A person was seen using a hover board on wheels making tawaaf, is this permissible?

Question

A person was seen using a hover board on wheels making tawaaf, is this permissible? Hover board is a motorized board that a person stands on and with tilting forward or backwards it increases or decreases speed. To be able to use this board you have to be completely stable and good at standing on a motion board or you will fall off. If a person can do this they can walk. Its highly unlikely for a person to be able to stand on this board and have any problem with the legs or body etc.

Answer

Making tawaaf riding a hover board is haraam. It is Waajib for an able person to walk.
