Skatecycle - (skateboards)

Skateboards, rollerblades, snakeboards... we’re not short of ways to get around town, over park benches and up old people’s noses. But the Skatecycle, from US company Brooklyn Workshop, outclasses them all.

Already making waves across the pond, this cool piece of kit is the world’s first self-propelled hubless skate. Just slot your feet into the space where the hubs should be and carve down a hill (like a snowboarder), or weave along the flat. The clever set up lets you propel yourself along indefinitely, without ever taking your feet off the plates!

It’s tricky to master, but once you’ve got the hang of it, the Skatecycle is incredibly fun! And once you’ve got from A to B, it’ll even fold up for easy storage. You’ll wonder how you ever got by with just your legs.
