Equipment
- Hoverboard: A hoverboard was a hover converted board-shaped vehicle in 2015, which was similar to a skateboard. Hoverboards worked similarly in principle to skateboards in that they needed momentum by the rider and most would become useless in terrain not suited for them, i.e. water, ice and other low traction surfaces, save for the more powerful Pit Bull model.
- Delorean: Despite initially not being a part of his Equipment as shown in the tell tale ending, future Marty’s eventually gain the time machine as a standard vehicle. The DeLorean time machine was Doctor Emmett Brown's most successful invention, a plutonium-powered time machine consisting of a DeLorean DMC-12 sports car that had to reach 88 miles per hour in order to time travel.
Other
Standard Tactics: Marty normally when about to fight shouts “What the hell is that?” and then attempts to attack his opponent while they’re off-guard.
Weaknesses: Hates being called chicken, to the point that he will face anyone that calls him one, though he’s gotten over being called a chicken and learned to stop caring.
Note: It is noted by Bob Gale that everything for Back to the Future is canon. Along with this he notes that the IDW comics and Telltale games work as not only a part IV to the series but give context and answer questions regarding things like how Doc and Marty met, how Doc’s house burned down, etcetera.
