In essence, the Segway must be at speed limiter (top speed), then the control shaft must be suddenly pulled back, the rider's foot off and then back on the platform, for the segway to reverse torque.

Again, virtually impossible unless you're doing something silly.

I think those users who have experienced this were doing things which were, lets say, not recommended.

Hilarious.

So you saw the girl going full speed, pulling the stick back, getting off and back on the machine... It's funny because if people were ACTUALLY doing what needed to be done for this to happen, they would be kicked out of any shopping area because they were riding recklessly. That is a dangerous maneuver, and Segway rental operators would NOT allow the expert key for rentals (as far as I know).

Just admit that you made it up and we'll be on our way, NATE.
