The Marvelous Folding Skateboard

By Isable Marsden


Jin-Seok, who is a designer from New York City, has invented that world's firsts folding skateboard. The folding skateboard is very portable and you can even store it away when not in use in your backpack, although it probably isn't intended to be used by the hardcore skateboarder to use daily. While the folding skateboard is very efficient and looks very cool its one weakness may very well be the center hinge which looks rather flimsy.

These days, most people have an expectation to be able to carry their belongings around with them all of the time. Laptop computers and mobile phones become very portable, and now there are other items that are following suit. This folding skateboard is very portable and well suited for busy people who are always on the go.

Zooming around on a skateboard isn't something that is new. The fact is that there are numerous twenty and thirty something year olds who have lost a considerable amount of skin while they were practicing their amazing skills on skateboards that were once considered nothing more than a pastime for juveniles. However, as a result of their weight and size, they are very cumbersome to carry around, especially if you're wearing a suit, regardless of how much fun they might be. However, the folding skateboard will still get you from one place to another much quicker than you'd ever get there by walking. It will then fold up from its 31inch length to something less that 11inches to be stowed away. The fact is that the folding skateboard is probably smaller than your laptop computer.

This folding skateboard overcomes many of its very unpractical disadvantages, such as having to carry it around and is a very practical transportation device. It has received good reviews from the fraternity of hardcore skateboarders that was always considered to be against to any changes to the basic design, even when the new design of the skateboard appears to be a much better design, like the BMW XXXXX.

To ride the folding skateboard you just unfold it and rest your back foot on the rear/tail assembly after placing your dominant foot on the front cradle, and off you go. Some varieties of the folding skateboard can be bought with many different accessory items that will convert it into either to a backpack with a considerable amount of storage or a wheeled rolling backpack that is something like a travel trolley that also has separate compartment to store the skateboard when it is in the folded position.
