Here you go guys. A fellow Australian just invented these new type of skates. I dont know if its a good idea to be jumping with these, but they would
be great for speed runs.....

thanks for the update
the balance axis must tedious ..the small trailing wheel is a bad sign for froward toe pressure.
terrain options would be huge ...If the trailing wheel was larger.

Hi Phreerider, are you getting any of my emails back to you, re your questions?

I sent the inventor a message.
Being an Aussie and a skier I figured he is probably a natural for something as out there as US :duh:
I told him about this site and the potential to find an expanded market including kiters in his plans.

Interesting ... wonder how they hold an edge

Did you read the FAQs on the site?
It says that their production cost is higher than US$ 1,500 :wow:
I think that this is by itself a rather price for a pair of skates, not to mention the resulting retail price!

You might as well drop the other shoe:
"a large pair of Wheelskates needs to be priced between USD5,000 and USD10,000 which, unfortunately,
means they will not be for everyone. "
:o :o :o :o
