The Curve Extreme Sport is a skateboard concept that looks to have its design roots in the MotoGP environment, thanks to a pair of MotoGP-inspired tires that actually taper on both ends, enabling the rider to make sharp turns during a high speed down-hill race. This is made possible by the drafted angle of the tires which minimizes the contact point for minimal friction, translating to maximum speed and greater agility. Racing down-hill in a skateboard or something that looks like one isn’t exactly my cup of tea, thank you very much. Better call your insurance agent and pay a higher premium if you’re ever thinking of picking one of these up should it materialize.
