)Orbitwheels Rocks!!
Check out this instruction video for the Orbitwheels. Damn it looks like the mix of old inline skates and my skateboard I've always wanted... The safety of the bastards are probably not worth mentioning, but who has ever had that in mind when going backwards down a flight of stairs on rollerblades? At least not until you sat waiting for 3 hours in the ER (I personally think they let you wait extra long when you report a skating accident.. Bastard Doctors!!). However it would be nice to see how you actually brake in them... (you might have noticed I skipped the 1:33 minute long safety warning of the same reason)
Pricetag lets you wonder why they are not already on your feet: 119 USD with Inventist. Gotta get me a pair soon!!
The minimalistic design alone with the hubless wheels are incredible... but reminds of the bike I just scrolled by earlier today ... The Swordfish which seems to be a concept bike for now:
Designed by Alexander Kotlyarevsky. Beautiful...
Is Guitar Hero really Risky Business?
Remember the 1983 movie Risky Business with a very young Tom Cruise?? In a pink shirt and socks ... rocking in the living room!
Now get the world famous Pro-skater Tony Hawk, NBA LA Lakers shooting guard Kobe Bryant, 14 x Olympic gold medal swimmer Michael Phelps and New York Yankees player Alex "A-Rod" Rodriguez to do the exact same thing, but in a commercial for Guitar Hero World Tour ... The cost of this must be HUGE!! But its for certain something that will get bring more attention to the game ... ;o)
Human Skateboarding
Incredible marketing campaign for Sneaux shoes... Makes you wanna go buy some more shoes!!
Speaking of which: Adidas Superstar NBA Collection is on the street!!!! The Adidas Concept Store in San Francisco has them all and I went Celtics on this St. Patricks Day.
First Descent
After having spent my entire weekend playing Amped on the Xbox (and a few rounds of poker, plus lots of beer and cigarettes = Perfect Weekend!!) I have to see this film sometime very soon...
Perhaps I should even take my own chances on the board one day? Naah, that would require my to get outside in the cold... then I'd rather be surfing in California!!
