Globe Stacks The Booty In Palm Springs

by The Editors on August 14, 2013

To promote their cruiser skateboards Globe did what any skateboarding company would do. They loaded up the Ace Palm Springs Hotel with a bunch of girls in bikinis (and topless); strategically stacked the booty in prime locations; and let the boys skateboard all over them them. And it works, because there is a dearth of booty in the world. Grow you quiver, indeed.

The makers of Alpine Replay (a ski and snowboarding action tracker) are launching a new tracker called Trace that (like competitor Lit) will get all your skateboarding, surfing, and snowboarding down for the world to see. All they need is $150,000 Kickstart and they’ll get cracking. You ready to put a dongle on your deck?

The Stair Rover Skateboard Rolls ‘Em

by The Editors on July 18, 2013

Lost your nerves on anything over a three set? Got no pop? Tired of picking up your skateboard to walk down the stairs? The Stair-Rover is here to help.

The unique eight-wheeled mechanism makes the board equally at home cruising smooth pavements or gliding down steps. From the curb outside your house to a double flight of stairs, the Stair-Rover scuttles over obstacles with ease. . . On flat ground, Stair-Rover is the equal of any traditional longboard. But when the surface gets rough – cobblestones or uneven paving, for example – the chassis goes to work. It reduces impact and keeps you moving.

If you’re inspired, you can even help the developers fund their project on Kickstarter.
