TOP 5 SKATEBOARD INVENTIONS #1

2016-08-02
this is what we've been working on in the past five years now we need your help to make the skateboard reality my name is Greg Breslau ski and on markers allow ski and we're super excited to finally share this campaign with you guys skateboards haven't changed for decades with the amount of abuse a typical rider puts the board through they're simply not strong enough towards chip lose their pop change feel over time this can throw off the consistency of a skater and affect their riding more than they might know some professional skateboarders need to change their decks daily to keep the board feeling consistent with Lyde slate construction we've created a lighter stronger more durable skateboard deck our boards use for plies a maple surrounded by carbon fiber carbon fiber is a lot stronger of material than maple we use two layers inside the board this prevents pressure cracks and helps maintain a consistent responsive feel while maintaining the same flex of a standard deck the nose and tail of our boards use a high-strength polymer this material is extremely resistant to razortail is virtually impossible to chip and has much more pop than a fresh maple deck this combination of materials makes a board that lasts an average of six times longer than an industry standard skate board because our decks feel so consistent through their life you can spend more time progressing your skills rather than relearning we've been testing these boards for over five years getting feedback from multiple Pro skaters and now we believe we created the perfect skate board look but good it's really good Avenue Trucks the first-ever high performance suspension skateboard truck with an increase in speed better supported turning impact reduction increased pop and reduce speed wobbles it makes avenue suspension trucks the first ever skate truck of its kind since almost everything else was wheels had suspension why hasn't skating adopted this yet truth is standard trucks have limitations they don't improve speed they don't reduce impact and they can't maximize the skaters performance that's why we created Avenue Trucks Avenue was created in a metal fab shop by a small team of skaters engineers and machinists we've always felt standard skate trucks lacked the engineering needed to support the demand skateboarding requires so we spent the last three and a half years designing testing and developing nearly six hundred prototypes to bring to you a truly versatile high-performance truck so what are some of the benefits first off a major increase in speed standard trucks don't absorb vibrations due to limited wheel travel they don't allow the wheels to roll smoothly over up concrete which ultimately slows the board down Avenue sky trucks absorb pavement imperfections and vibrations keeping your momentum forward and your ride fast and smooth our trucks also compress with you while pumping through verts and transitions give me much more speed more speed overt means more height and bigger air if you're an aggressive skater you'll be stuck - no our trucks help absorb impact on joints and your bones whether you're dropping off a 10 stair a rooftop or just perfecting your tricks impacts add up eventually destroying your body less stress on your body means less time recovering and more time skiing unlike standard trucks our base play slightly compresses before throwing a trick releases when you pop and brings energy to every trick reducing that dead weighted feeling better pop bigger tricks having suspension also means smoother longer grinds by absorbing rough edges chipped concrete or dented rails our flexible baseplate helps you maintain your grind speed eliminating most elements that interfere long fast grind we've also discovered that Avenue trucks have helped reduce speed wobble in major way we've been able to take our trucks up to 50 miles an hour before seeing any sign of speed wobble we're also introducing our suspension truck to the longboarding industry as we're in the process of successfully finishing the designing and testing of our long board trucks allowing for faster and more stable speeds on the longboard so pick up your pair and feel the benefits of what a high-performance gait truck can really do for you together we can elevate skateboarding to an entirely new and exciting level this is the future meadow is the first and only state-of-the-art compact electric drive system that can fit under any skateboard within minutes it can transform any normal schedule into an electric skateboard tomato is just the small two point five kilo component but it has the capacity to upgrade your favorite board into the most dynamic and high-quality electric skateboard on the market all you have to do is unscrew the rear track of your board replace it with a metal drive and you're ready to go now that Killian tell you all about the new high the heart of mellow is the motor and we're really proud to say that it's been developed tested and produced in Germany before we founded Melo I was an electric car engineer at BMW this definitely opened some doors when we started looking for the best partners and supplier they immediately shared our vision of a compact yet potent inwe'll motor for direct transmission and thus maximum riding pleasure even if you are an absolute skateboard rookie the handling of Melo is really simple with the intuitive hand control all functions are just under your thumb finding the right battery for Melo was a challenge on the one hand he wants to an endless ride on the other hand we wanted as little weight as possible the solution is a custom-made swappable battery pack so in case you really want to go for an endless ride you can easily exchange it on the go every year millions of people will pick up a skateboard for the first time all of them want to start landing awesome tricks if you land one you're hooked the early tricks are very hard for most of us just like any sport if the kids don't see progress they quit that's why I created skatertrainers most tips tell you to start out in the crack or some grass but it's not enough you don't land back in the crack and the grass doesn't quite feel the same there are a lot of great how-to videos out there but many skaters give up too soon on their skateboarding dreams skater trainer is a simple tool that you slip on the wheels of your skateboard to keep it from rolling it's an intermediate step to slow things down so you can learn the moves and commit to landing tricks like a nollie or a kickflip my name is Roger I'm an engineer an inventor and the creator of schedule trainer I spent 25 years not skating and then decided that I wanted to get back into it easier said than done it was tough I felt like a beginner all over again only this time with a lot more fear of falling and busting my 40 year old ass having spent the last 20 years as an aerospace engineer my mind instantly went into figuring out a solution to this problems I built a prototype out of things I had around the house and learned a few tricks I knew I was on to something so I made a $200 youtube video created a manufacturable design and started testing I was blown away by the response I got skaters crossed the world we're sending in their praise of skatertrainers on Monday and I learned it Kickham by the end of Monday I think you guys are totally gone there they're totally worth it their testimonials validated the concept but they also highlighted some key issues they were hard to get on with slip off when used eventually wore out and we're pretty ugly I took that feedback and created version 2.0 skatertrainers it's waser to install fits on almost any skateboard wheel won't slip off is lighter and more durable than the first version the design is ready the production prototypes work great and the manufacturer here in Oklahoma is standing by the produced skatertrainers are the perfect gift to help your favorite skater get the tricks they really want have some fun and stay excited about skateboarding you let's be honest the skates industry hasn't seen any real innovation in the past thirty years that's why we've decided to think outside the block introducing the world's first bullet resistant clear customizable skateboard here for absolutely any lifestyle whether you're a beginner skateboarder or an advanced downhiller the jelly Manowar is the perfect ride for you what's going on guys this is sven CEO and co-founder of jelly we're super excited to introduce you the all new redesigned jelly Manowar which has been a culmination of all the awesome feedback that we've received from our jelly fans across the world but we thought would go one step further so we teamed up with the homies and lock risers innovation to give our boards the functionality to fit your lifestyle the flex of a snowboard needs to flow the surfboard the jelly Manowar is it down hallucinate so I really like the new jelly deck Man O'War super sick or Scott concave keep it under Mikey blocks are super sick and just click right into my skateboard I'm not down the hill without worrying about my camera alright my name is Kevin founder and chief technical innovation officer for blocker Iser innovations I've always liked putting things in places that's why I came with this stash block so I can put more things in more places one of the things can you put into the stash block you might ask I wonder what's up son bro got any jelly but of course care from grave yeah the patent-pending Betty box allows you to replace your stash block with the go block and now you can film with added stability you the standard GoPro attaches to the top of your board increasing vibrations and rendering your footage useless plus once you stick them on they become a permanent fixture the go block can be easily taken on and off allowing for limitless user experience by absorbing vibrations reducing speed wobbles and increasing stability the space-age material provides extreme flexibility making jelly the easiest skateboard to ride ever it really is the perfect board for riding down the boardwalk is so frizzy and it's super mellow but really responsive like I'm not used to skating I felt really natural on the board it was really inviting and we both really had an awesome times getting the board's they I really enjoy how they flex about how durable they compete they're awesome I can't I can't think another board ride on they don't catch over cracks it just flowed over everything they're good they're nice are smooth the fast my friends love them good time I love this board it saves you valuable minutes in the morning it's fun for me to get from my car into the office look at it sleek enough that I can bring it in the jelly boys has made it so much easier for me it also takes you up to the next level skateboarder alex gets so scared to like ride the jelly board but the jelly board wasn't actually just so scary to ride you need a few tiny the added benefit of a deck made out of bulletproof glass is simple it's super high impact resistant and 100% recyclable jellies rock is ready to roll all we need is your support you
