Kids don't skateboard in front of their houses anymore. They ride their bikes to skateparks and other places to ride. I came up with this idea after watching numerous kids struggling with their board while trying to steer their bikes. My kids were also skateboarders. Also, many skateboarders today buy expensive wheels that are worn down by riding their boards just to get to where the want to ride and do tricks. If you have seen the xgames on tv you know that skateboarding is a serious sport. We also have a model that holds any size ball (basketball, soccer or football) As for the name a focus group of skateboarding/bmx riding teenagers came up with the name. I am considering renaming although the name isn't stamped anywhere on the actual product only the packaging. Thanks for your comments. I appreciate the input. Thanks md guy (you know who you are) I have reconsidered the name thing :)
