The Dirtsurfer: New Bike And Skateboard Hybrid Thing

Posted by Matt Hickey at 1:00 PM on August 23, 2008

It's part bike and part skateboard and it looks all fun. It's the Freestyle Dirtsurfer and it's a new hybrid like toy for all of you X Games types who can't wait for winter to get here soon enough. One neat touch is a Razor-scooter-like brake on the back wheel so you don't end up in the ER the first time you try it on a downhill. And for US$450, you really don't want to crash it too much.

When I was 22, I was just finishing up Uni, spending too much time in pubs and clubs and wondering how Nokia managed to get an address book function in their latest mobile phone. At no point in time did it cross my mind that I should go to one of the remotest parts of the world and try and cross a relatively unexplored island on foot.

But maybe that's just me. It's definitely not Chris Bray or Clark Carter, two young Australians who made their first attempt to cross Victoria Island up in the Arctic circle back in 2005, when they were just 22 and 21 respectively. Today they fly out to try and complete the 1000km trek they started 3 years ago.

Over the next 100 days, they are likely to be chased by arctic wolves and attacked by polar bears as they make their way across some of the harshest terrain imaginable. But if you think that's cool, you should check out some of the gadgets they're taking with them:
