Remember Lexus' fully functional hoverboard? Well, according to Lexus, it "arrives" August 5 -- though in this case we're quite sure it doesn't mean it will be available for sale.

Instead, we're likely to see a full video of the hoverboard in action, and to quench our thirst for Back to the Future-themed gadgets and flying things, Lexus launched another teaser trailer Tuesday.

The new trailer reveals almost nothing new -- we see glimpses of the skatepark in which the hoverboard was filmed, a drone with many cameras, a film crew --- you know, everything you need to film a hoverboard video.

The last few seconds, however, which show the hoverboard slowly gliding through the air, would be mesmerizing -- if only they lasted a little longer. This will do for now, Lexus, but next time we wanna see tricks performed on this thing.
