Stowboard Review
The Stowboard is a foldable skateboard. The Stowboard something like a skateboard, that folds up into a compact little unit that can be fit easily into a backpack. It's very high tech, solid, and cool. It doesn't ride just like a skateboard, but it's similar. Read the review for more info on this invention.

Video - The Walkabout
The Walkabout is a training video (on VHS or DVD) that works through the technique of cross stepping, a vital skill for longboard surfing. The video uses the Indo Board as a tool, teaching the watcher how to use the Indo Board, how to train, techniques for cross stepping, and loads of interviews with longboard surfers and wakeboarders from all over. A great tool to go along with your Indo Board.

Indo Kicktail Balance Trainer
Indo Boards are balance trainers that use a board and a roller to simulate the conditions of surfing, skateboarding, wakeboarding - all types of board sports. The Kicktail is a long board with turned up tips - much longer than the Original Indo, and also without the safety catches on the bottom. Made especially for skateboarding, the Indo Kicktail has a lot to offer. Read the review for more.

Indo Mini Kicktail Ballance Trainer
The Indo Mini Kicktail is the Indo Board's dangerous little punk bro. It's small, light, and extremely easy to get hurt with. The Mini Kicktail is for serious, advanced riders only - it's covered in warnings crying, "Use at your own risk!" With all that warning, you just know it's gotta be fun, right?

The Wave
The Wave is a new invention - it's something like two pads, with one wheel each, linked by a pivot. Hard to picture? Check out the review for more! Not a snakeboard, and not a skateboard, the Wave is something new and original. Originally known in Korea as the Ess Board or X-Board, now called The Wave, available at Street Surfing dot com. Check out this exclusive review of The Wave for more information.

Original Indo Board Balance Trainer
The original Indo Board is the perfect all around balance trainer for any sport where balance would be key, such as surfing, skateboarding, wakeboarding - in fact, any athlete would benefit greatly from Indoing! Read the review to learn more about the Original Indo Board, as well as links to two other specialty balance boards by Indo. The learning curve is quick, and the Indoboard can be used by beginners to pros - there's always room to improve.

Snowdeck - Burton Junkyard
The Burton Junkyard is a great balance between skateboard and snowboard, as long as you know what you are doing. Take it on trails, through terrain parks, off drops - the Junkyard is built to play with. However, don't plan on carving up the slopes - that's not why it's there. This is a skateboard for the snow, and as such, it can be a lot of fun. Just plan on taking a while to figure out how to use it without kicking the crud out of yourself.
