Push Snowboarding | By Nokia And Burton

Nokia, in partnership with Burton, developed a monitoring system for snowboarders. The idea is to connect a series of sensors (heart rate, pressure on the board and orientation) to a Arduino processor, which then sends via Bluetooth, the acquired data to a Nokia N8, which records the entire performance (including the phone´s GPS path).  All this through a free application that can be downloaded from the Push Snowboarding web page. The Push Kit should be available soon. Watch the video after the jump.

Simply slap one of these on your favorite board to allow the nose of the board to move freer and rotate independently of the wheels. Pump, carve, and control slides just like they would on an actual surfboard. You can make much tighter...

SIDE PROJECT SKATEBOARDS

We are loving these handmade, vintage-inspired skateboards by Side Project Skateboards. Taking inspiration from the skate culture in the early 60’s, each board is handcrafted from start to finish using found and recovered hardwoods, with each one bearing it’s own unique profile and wood pattern, ensuring no two boards are alike. The boards are handmade in Houston, Texas, in limited quantities, and are available as deck only or as a complete skateboard. via...
