Freebord

From US$199.99 (£125)
Freebord
A skateboard crossbred with a snowboard, the Freebord features extra centre wheels allowing it to be ridden in a perpendicular “stylee” as well as in regular fashion. You can carve, slide, slow down and stop wherever you like – the concept behind the Freebord is that you have more control and flexibility than a normal skateboard delivers.
