About it
A Möbius strip is a loop with a half twist in it. It has only one side and only one edge: a line drawn along its middle comes back to where it started without ever crossing an edge. It is named after August Möbius, who wrote about it in the 1850s. You can make one from a strip of paper and some tape.
Tap it and the rider goes along the middle of the band. After one lap it is underneath where it started, and after two it is back on top. Pick a race car, a beach ball, a duck on a bike, an ant, a toy train, a ladybug or a skateboard in the Splash tab, each with its own sound, and a rider color. Pick the band's colors and glow there too.
