5 Amazing Longboard Inventions #1

2016-10-17
the lien longboard incorporates innovation and advancement in longboard technology now this board gives you three main things great stability great power control and responsiveness to the writer the lean board really leans into its turns I wanted a board which is that coffee for cruising and carving and I noticed before how big was on it I can go or any cracks is it smooth that put big wheels on my regular board and if you really work that well it was like race of the central gravity will just go high up the ground so being a passionate skateboarder and as well as an engineer I thought like why can't make something my own some quality because the way the means telecoil design and the individual axle for each viewer these wheels are perfect for all terrain because you want to be able to glide over those obstacles like small rocks or large cracks that can make you break suddenly or just throw you off your groove the lean longboard is spring-loaded and this gives you a constant force and if you prefer more carve ability you can actually loosen the springs and if you prefer higher speed what's cool is you can actually tighten the springs some different you know like and for that I had a black disc cruising up and down here real quick you know like it I could actually think of a few friends would be interested in something that's more their style the shape of the lean board is actually symmetrical so it can move in either direction and it's perfect for free length it crows up which gives you pockets holding and locking your feet in giving you more control and more of a sense of confidence when making those shots what we want to do is add a little kick on to this side of the board and pretty much what that does is it gives you an extra grip for your feet so when you're sliding down the hill you know you have something somewhere to place your feet so you feel safe and you feel secure and you just you get a whole different experience riding it's almost like falling in love for the wrist area hi everyone my name's Benjamin I'm the designer of the brake board trucks now the brake board trucks are a braking system for skateboards then you might think a brake on a skateboard how does semi flying this is not the case we spend a very long time to refine a brake that could control your speed downhill with these really good skaters can do power slides and high speed foot braking but the general rider like us can't do this we just want to be able to commute down the hill with ease and control and the brake board trucks allow this this is a break board now break board is actually all contained within the rear truck you can set this truck up onto your own deck now how it works is is a pedal on top a pair of disc brakes well technically they call coin clutches you can use any deck or any wheels of your choice and quite simply just apply pressure on here and it requires body weight so that it won't bite or skid suddenly you won't flat spot your wheels you'll be able to control your speed with power down hill past 12 months we've been setting out for manufacturing and we landed our first few sets the beginning of this year now we use these sets to trial them out in the public and get your feedback the feedback was awesome you'd love the brakes but you had a few great ideas which we want to now develop the main idea that we loved was a quick-release brake pedal one that you can just flip off when you want to ride without a break say you're doing freestyle tricks or whatever and it gives clicker back on whenever you need it another thing that people suggest were just a range of different brake sizes we've had some guys who are doing high speed downhill speeds up to 50 miles per hour plus and I lovin the brake but they want a break with a little bit more power and what they suggested is carbs and ceramics these carbon ceramic components would be retrofittable to your existing brake and your support will help us develop that faster you yeah yeah you hey Kickstarter fellow longboarders i'm brian femme I am wrongish and I'm currently a student finishing up my studies and finance over at Florida A&M University and I am a mechanical design engineer with over 30 years of experience under my belt and together we make a pie pattern we specialize in manufacturing fully carbon fiber long boards we can't wait to get them into your hands first off what is carbon fiber carbon fiber is a unique material used in aerospace motorsports civil engineering and along with several other competition sports it's made up of thousands of very thin strings of carbon and when living together and applied with epoxy it gains enormous strength characteristics his properties are worth making favor of ultimately with its low weight high stiffness in high tensile strength carbon fiber is ideal for long boarding purposes I thought her longboards offer something no other brand man we're a board company we're willing to give the writer yobics feared for the old medallion and working on it with top quality cover fire integrity Amex our port are not only lighter but many times stronger than the traditional world longboard this attributes offer several key benefits such as maneuverability I respond and durability in giving mention our price point we want underwriter to experience a high quality high performance long board at our modest price range or two mega dollars the price of Technology guy between wooden and carbon fiber long boards will soon be brewed it started with applying a single layer of carbon fiber to each side of a woodland board we were trying to figure out how to make a longboard stronger because a common problem with wood decks is that they eventually break while adding two layers of carbon fiber did make it stronger it also added weight which isn't really ideal so when it came to choosing the lesser of two evils we chose neither we decided to give making a fully carbon fiber composite deck a shot and ever since our design and manufacturing process has only been improving real shields a longboarding accessory that upgrades your ride with six powerful features here's why you need wheels picketing soaps with mom boarding to class their work typically your wheels will fling dirty rain and slug all over your clothes we know shields acts similar to a mud flap on a bike keeping you dry in a riding fresh well down hill now you won't lock wheels with other riders their wheels will lock against yours but your wheels will keep rotating because they are protected by wheel shields giving you the confidence to see tighter lines around opposition sick of the same old tricks real shields allow riders to stand directly on top of their wheels opening up all sorts of new trick possibilities you can invent brand new coleman's slides manuals and dances with wheel shapes by focusing on load based right during development we managed to engineer an incredibly robust and durable longboard upgrade real shields were designed by professional prop developers and are a modern marvel of material science and what FDA testing clean cheap real white guy you down by creating a physical barrier around each wheel wheel shields eliminate wheel bite and allow us to rotate food instead of your board hitting the wheel it is stopped by the dealership sick of replacing your bearings every few weeks noodle shields fits snugly against the outer bearing of each wheel without creating additional friction this keeps water from entering the bed protecting it from rust and increasing a usable life paint shoe bite will no longer accidentally step on your wheels which can happen when you do the new tricks are taking selling no more shoe bite makes wheel shields excellent for community plus you'll also stay drive wheel shields are made from aircraft aluminum a set of 4-wheel shields adds just one pound to your loan board installation is easy real shields come with the free skate tool speed rings and the custom nuts needed for installation real shields work for almost all wheels 75 millimeters and under the only reels that will not fit are those with more than one inch between the bearing and outer lip which is very ring wheel shields even work on uber wide wheels like biggy cause
