Dirtsurfer Freestyle: Hybrid for the Extreme

Dirtsurfer Freestyle
Here is a new toy for the serious Extreme sport lovers. Dubbed as the Dirtsurfer Freestyle, this hybrid vehicle can run faster than a skateboard. However, you need to learn how to drive and balance it so you don’t end up in the ER. It works just like an ordinary bicycle but with a little trick: the faster you drive this vehicle, the more stable it becomes. This “bike skateboard” comes with a simple lever-activated disc brake mounted on the rear wheel to help you stop. Just grab your iPod, hop on this, and put on your Extreme Mix! $450.
