Weirdest skateboard for me would be the one BMW made back in the early 2000s. As far as inventions go you guys could probably do one on Skateboard trucks. There's the Tarantula trucks,lowered skateboard,avenue skateboard trucks(suspension trucks), and probably many more you guys can dig up. On a side note, did Canadians invent snowskating? I'm moving to Montreal this year and it seems it's a popular sport out there. Cheers from Brazil!
You mentioned Simon Woodstock, I remember seeing him for the first time at a sonic demo. Straight up board sliding a 5 stair rail on a metal ironing board! Absolute legend
@@charlietate5514 most likely yes, but it's not impossible to get an M16. Ex military and non felon, basically and you're good to go. (In no way do I mean myself). Alot of my family members are ex military and they have alot of cool toys. Either way it's not an AK.
The snow skate is the real life example of how desperate us Canadians get to skate in the winter time. Also, raddest thing about the folding longboard is that even if you get mad enough that you wanna focus it, it just folds and doesn’t break. The session never ends! What a life saver 💯
I am livid and the only reason for that is that he called an M16 a AK-47. But that's still cool that the guy (I forgot his name and it's too much effort to go back to look)made it work
When I was a kid my local shop had a log on trucks behind the counter. Also pretty sure they had a giant flip flop setup too. I was thinking about setting up something random as a deck.
One time- back in 95 - I went to a weird hat party at a ski resort in CA. I bolted skate trucks and wheels on a snowboard bindings and strapped it to my dome - then proceeded to do headstand skate moves - until I was kicked out of the bar... Oh the nineties
I remember a board type that had this front steering part or back as there were two or more brands making them, made more for Downhill skateboard that was this weird board you steered with your foot. there were a few models like this with some boards working better than others but often since most of the models were really cheap, the wheels/bearings got replaced with often trucks too getting replaced for good steel if they did not have the stiff steel design. Playschool made a board later copied by other cheap brands with better trucks wheels & bearings that had a that was for kids that would be a scooter for those who do not have the coordination yet but for slightly older kids the handle would flip down either into the board, be a part of the deck, or in only one model be fully removable screwed in deal from same company that later sold the Shread boards. These were a cool concept for getting kids into skateboarding.
Dude what about the Snakeboard???? I use to kill it at the park with this thing, still got one and can shred….. a lil I’m old lol!!! Anyways I’d love to get your take on this species of skateboarding!
Some company made a board that sold only at the poser super--emo punk clothing store Claire. This skateboard was designed to where the board was just like a regular skateboard in the 2000's but like a 3/4 size board including the trucks and wheels. The wheels were small enough at 30 mm unlike the 50-60 mm most people used with 45 about as small as wheels really got so if you hit any kind of very small rock/large pebble momentum died. the Board at first always was sold with a purse like semi open case to carry the board around but if a teen boy/adult male bought the board, they often just gave the purse to a goodwill/Salvation Army like thrift store. Claire stopped about a year into selling as even with Teen age girls/adult women the purse was not worth selling with the board and had the purse thing as an option. I know since I saw a few people bought the $25 board to see if it was any good, those who did skate and yes, the bord worked fine but what at least 2--3 of them did if they kept the skateboard/did not break it was drill new holes in the top for good better quality full sized trucks & wheels to have this ultra short mini double kick board for doing insane flip tricks without having momentum be stopped by the stupidly small wheels.
That giant Dyrdek board is pretty legit, but technically Foundation did it first. See the 'Duty Now For The Future' video. So, he stole the idea, and therefore deserves zero credit.
man, roller racer was legit tho. we used to ride them on the neighbor's 7 1/2 foot vert half pipe riding it on our knees instead of sitting. used to get pretty crazy with it actually. big wheels too. my friends little brother rode his big wheel knee style on that vert ramp and was able to pump the transition to get up to thr vert section. it was that innocent ballsyness that only exists before a person has experienced their first hardcore eat it.
@@Chu-chu_Nezumi Not for sale. I payed 20 bucks for it in 2004 from The G Spot in Langhorne Pa. Great Shop, unfortunately not there anymore. Miss that place.
The sk8 board with WINGS Bro !!! And I think it even had wheels on the wing tips so you could carve around corners ... Wings on a skateboard I can't understand why it never court on !!!!😂😂😂😂
You guys are rad. Would it be possible to make a video about the top # of sports that try to be skateboarding but aren't? Like the spinoff sports that were created by jealous people who tried to skate and just couldn't... Sports like Scootering, Rollerblades, Wakeboarding or Wake Skate, skimboarding (kinda skate and surf rip off), and I know there are many more. 🤟🤣
my parents bought me a snowskate back in hs because i broke my snowboard just as the season was sending the year prior, just as something to hold me up until xmas. i remember there wasnt that much snow out but i still wanted to learn a few tricks on it, and i broke the fkin thing within 5mins. my mom called the store that i bought it from to complain and they were like 'he shouldnt have been trying to do tricks on it'? eventually i got ahold of them and talked them into replacing it for free but it just wasnt fun because the shop was an hour away from my house.
Uh that Ski Skate the odd middle people did ride it like a set of skis if under 200 pounds or 90 kilograms. The Ski Skate was made by a skier who could not ski as much as he liked when he moved from a cold place to California, so he made this to do his sport more not having to go to Lake Tahoe in the winter. The other thing was this board was made before the rollerblade wheels/foldable scooter wheels on the Cross Country type of skis made for summer use, so it was impossible for the guy to get those. This was even before people took often an old pair of cross country skis in the early 1990's and attached skateboard/rollerskate wheels to the skis they used to keep training in the summer.
Didn't Tech Deck make a Hand board made for doing only handstand tricks in the 2000's that had to be stopped in production due to lawsuits over kids using the boards like actual skateboards with them failing? I think Tech Deck had to end up paying some $$$?, but I am not 100% on the lawsuit part so do not quote me on this.
Don't get much snow in southwestern Arizona, but we do have water. Have you ever tried to wake skate? Wake Skates are a shorter, thinner wakeboard without bindings. It's pretty cool 🤘 I know you said "Crappy", but Wake Skates are anything but.. Also, I used to take old skate decks, run laces thru the holes, to act as bindings and trampoline skate 😜 sometimes I'd just do away with the laces and try 720° flips. Landed a few. That was about 20 years ago...🤔 memories
This guy assumes everyone solely skates street. That foldable board would be perfect for people who skate to work and only have a small locker for storage.
@@ShredzShop They're insanely stupid late 90's gimmick shit. Basically a Ripstick with 4 wheels and bindings. They even made fucking "Snakeboard Parks" where only snakeboarding was allowed. Oh also I would've mentioned Carveboards in this video too AND THE BMW STREETCARVER!!! BMW made a $560 skateboard in the 90's!
for cheaper get the plastic snowboards. Most of those are made of the same plastic that a few skateboards use again, as some company has recreated a 1970's skateboard sold at Walmart and Target but have modern bearings and a full knock off of the top of the like Chigago trucks used on the 1970's board.
Does anyone remember the time Almost made skateboards with bolt holes spaced evenly throughout the entire deck? The marketing was it having much less wind resistance to do flip tricks. The main attraction was being able to put trucks wherever on the board including extra pair as “manual training wheels” so you didn’t have to worry dragging your nose or tail. I’ve searched high and low for this product and not even the internet knows what I am talking about. I have clear memories of seeing several times in one of the skateboarding magazine a around 2005/2006. I was going to buy it myself but thought better of it thinking all those holes would make it break easier. Also…. Does anyone remember the Element siamese board series? It was 2 pro decks half and half graphics such as Tosh Townend and Jake Rupp or something… it was for switch tricks because both ends were the nose and there was essentially no tail. I remember they had a contest that you can send in the video of your best regular and switch trick on the board. The winner received some prize which I don’t remember anymore. I think that was 2004ish… Sometimes I wonder if I am just in the throes of dementia
one of my friends used to ride a freeboard. it's like a longboard but with two addidional wheels that spin 360 degree. it rides more like a snowboard and it is actually quite fun to ride. but you need to get your brain into snowboarding mode which isn't very easy to do when you're on a paved road in the summer.
