subject: Innovation In Scooter Technology From The Makers Of The Original Razor Scooter [print this page] The company that came up with the first new innovation in human propelled transport since inline skates has now moved the game on further with a new three wheeled scooter called the powerwing which changes the rules completely. The new scooter has a normal handlebar and front wheel but apart from that nothing has remained the same. A new T shaped aluminum strut has replaced the old one with the handlebar at one end and a single caster wheel at each end. Each rear wheel can now pivot independently and this is what the game changing design is.
Unlike a normal scooter or a skateboard you no longer need to push the ground with your foot to actually get going or attain speed. The combination of the castor wheeled design and the potential for independent movement allows you to slide the back end in a to and fro movement that actually gives you forward momentum. The addition of one wheel has also added endless possibilities for movement and the powerwing is capable of moves and stunts that were unheard of with normal inline wheeled scooters. You can now do power slides around corners like a pro and other fun moves like kick- outs, side drifts and even spin outs.
The new scooter also opens up the craze for people who never before considered razor scooters because of the two wheels. The additional wheel brings greater stability and the swaying side to side movement that you need to get the powerwing to move is also a great work out and good for overall flexibility.
You also get greater safety and peace of mind with the new hand operated front wheel brake for complete stops to make sure you don't run into other scooter riders, pedestrians or even traffic. The tough aluminum body and heavy duty construction makes this scooter stand up to punishment like no other and it can take all the jumps, skids and other tricks that you can throw at it and still keep on trucking like a champ.
So if you are ready to move up your scooter riding game to three wheels or are a new rider who has never tried them before, this is the scooter for you.
