The Valet My Stick Skateboard Lock

by The Editors on September 7, 2011

Ever wanted to lock up your skateboard to a bike rack after a roll to the store? Yeah, we never have either. But that hasn’t stopped San Diego, California inventor Tom Piszkin from coming up with the “Valet My Stick” skateboard lock, according to a story on First Coast News.

“Theaters don’t want skateboards in, restaurants don’t want skateboards in, a classroom gets cluttered with skateboards, so there are lots of places where they are starting to be restricted,” he says. . . Piszkin came up with the ideal solution. . . It’s like a bicycle cable lock, but with a loop big enough to go around the skateboard truck, or axle.

To quote the skater interviewed, “I never really actually thought about a skateboard lock.” And neither has anyone else.
