A 77-year-old nun, dressed in her habit, floated into a polling station on board a hoverboard.

The French Catholic nun looks in total control of her unusual choice of transport as she went to cast her vote in the first round of the country's legislative elections.

Identified as Sister Fabienne from Les Filles du cœur de Marie, she was featured on the Christian Aleteia website.

The hoverboard belongs to Sr. Fabienne's friend father Aymeric de Salvert, who gave her a quick lesson.

When asked about her mode of transport, she said: "Oh you know, it sounds complicated like that, but now I'm a pro!



"You just have to lean forward to go a little faster, and back to brake."

The footage was recorded in the town of Baugé on Sunday, and has been viewed more than 10,000 times.
