Abstract: An auxiliary propulsion system for a skateboard, watercraft or other small vehicle has a wheel or propeller powered by a motor at one end and a handle at the other end. A person riding a vehicle adjusts the position and orientation of the device to apply a propulsion force in a desired direction. The amount of torque applied to the propeller or wheel can be adjusted in real time. Because the propulsion system is not a fixed to the craft or person it is propelling, it may be exchanged between people in mid-transit.
