Pumgo Big Wheeled Skateboard
The Pumgo Big Wheeled Skateboard uses an ingenious 4WD and four wheel steering system to propel the rider without the need to push off the ground. As you push each end of the Pumgo Big Wheeled Skateboard down, the toothed metal shaft underneath spins gears inside the gearbox which in turn spins the wheels. Each wheel is equipped with a one-way clutch to allow the right amount of power to get to each wheel and to allow the wheels to spin freely while coasting and turning. The coolest part is that the Pumgo is easier to ride than a skateboard because it only goes in one direction, forward. The Pumgo is ideal for cruising large flat areas and is great in skateparks for advanced riders. Buy the Pumgo for a price of $149.
