Ground Surf: The Ecstacy of surfing on land
We all love a lil bit of surfing don’t we? That sense of simplistic awe and smooth sway it gives you when you ripple and flipple on those waves is something that nothing else has been able to match so far. But chances are, that if the new skateboard, the GroundSurf, that you see up there that will soon be retailed by Gordon and Smith has its way, then you’re going to get a lot more than that experience, with or without the sea.
Think m crazy? Well, if you go by the functionality of it, what you see up there is not entirely a skateboard, but a surfboard that lets you surf on land and what makes it all the more cooler is that you can control it with a bluetooth cellphone. It’s driven by an electric motor between the two front wheels, and you can either remotely control its speed with your Bluetooth cellphone or lean forward to accelerate, backward to slow down or brake. Talk about being in control, eh?
What makes sure it would walk the talk is that it has been tested and developed with professional surfers, which gives you that added bit of assurance of it being one of your smoothest experiences. What might slouch your happiness back a lil is its cost, which is slated to be a whopping $1770 to $2040 when it hits the stores.
