Do you skate board or roller skate (...we don't but wont mind trying) then you will find this quite interesting and even if you don't, you still will. Riding on a set of small tires has always left us with a skeptic feeling (...especially due to our roads) about certain injuries and all, though watching others do it can be amusing (...especially their epic fails).
This unique concept skates caught our attention and though its not enjoying any major publicity (...selfie sticks, seriously?) we love the design and operation mechanism.
So what are they? they are annular skates that allow users to place their feet in each loop and ride them side ways (...like a skateboard), leaning side to side controls its acceleration and deceleration, stopping just requires you the rider to place your toes on the floor (...we guess it decelerates as your toes inch closer to the ground). the wheels are about 10 inches in diameter so there is ample space for your feet and that size allows the wheels to move on rougher terrains unlike the smaller ones of roller blades and skate boards.
The package also comes with a connecting rod for the wheels, this will enable beginners get a hang of riding it and then, go pro by taking them off and feeling like a super hero. These skates seem to have a weight limit though, 200IBS (pound) which is approximately 91kg (...still need a reason to diet?).
Our thoughts:
We love how it looks and how it rides, the 2-tone color theme is also a looker but we will like to see more color options like dark gray/matte black, white/black, gold/black, orange/black (...we know, these colors rock). Some additions to these skates will also be cool like indicator circular lights on the rim that are sunlight controlled, interchangeable wheels (...from very rugged patterns to blade thin surface area types) and perhaps the ability to change the position of the foot hold so riders can be facing forward directly if they want to (...a la the skater chic in Big Hero 6), now these additions will leave us with only one thing to say...SHUT UP AND TAKE OUR MONEY.
