‘360′ Summer Snowboard by Francesco Sommacal
When snowboard season’s over, most boarders are looking for an alternative for the summer. Usually the next best thing is skateboarding. But if you’re looking to try something new, give the ‘360′ a spin. Winner of the Volvo Sports Design award, the ‘360′ by Francesco Sommacal takes the feel of snowboarding to the streets. You simply put your feet into the two wheel contraption and steer down surfaces by shifting your weight front to back like you would normally on a snowboard. Nothing beats traversing down powder on a mountain, but when time comes to hang up the board for the season, the ‘360′ is definitely something to look forward to.

Just fight the urge to try and punch someone with it.
