Imagine mastering the art of skateboarding without the board. Sidewinding skates, priced at $100, offer a unique twist to the traditional sport, placing your feet directly inside the wheels. Let's delve into this innovative concept and its potential to redefine skateboarding.
The Post Modern Skateboard is a cross between a skateboard and inline skates
It comprises two 10-inch wheels, which riders position their feet inside, instead of balancing on a conventional board.
- The wheels can be joined together with a pole, to make the experience more like skateboarding, or kept separate to be used more like in-line skates.
The Post Modern Skateboard
Composition: Two 10-inch wheels, which riders position their feet inside
- Wheels can be used independently as skates or joined with a metal bar to form a ‘board’
- Annular skates are propelled by leaning side to side, to let a user skateboard without pushing off the ground
- Tricks: When the toy is used like inline skates, riders can perform 720° spins and turn on a dime
- When the wheels are connected by a metal pole, it is most similar to a casterboard
The $1300 ONE WHEELED SKATEBOARD THAT CAN BALANCE ITSELF
Called the Onewheel, the gadget has a single air filled tyre taken from a go-kart.
- It can reach speeds on 12mph (19km/h), and turn 360 degrees within the length of the board while balancing itself using the same motion sensing technology found in a smartphone.
