Blades >> Freestyle rollerblading is a fast growing sport to watch out for. I myself, rollerblade and I love it. A lot of people are starting to get into it and blading companies are skyrocketing. The big companies are mainly K2, Rollerblade, Chocolate and many others, but not those shitty imitation CCM or Bauer's with grindplates. I recently got in touch with a world renound blader named Fabiola de Silva from Brazil. She is the best all around female skater in the world. If there is one summer sport that I could recomend, rollerblading is it.
Snowboarding >> Boarding is amazing, and many people are switching to it from that messed up two plank stuff. There are a lot of good companies in the Snowboarding industry. The most well known is probably Burton, they have the best all around gear i the world. The other main competitors are K2 (bindings), Limited (boards) and Flow (boots and bindings). If you ride you may want to check out these companies products. I ride a Limited 99 Transition board and use the K2 step-in-system for boots and bindings and I have the 99 Oakley A frames. When your snowboarding you want to look good, it doesn't matter if you are riding pipe, freestyle or are into major powder you have to have good clothing. Good Jackets and Pants can be found anywhere but if you want warm hands check out the new Burtons, they're the best on the market. Now to goggles, If I were you I would probably go for something with two lenses and not the new Dragons or a ski resort special, your eyes are critical.
BMX >> Biking is a new found and well liked sport. People like it so much because there are so many different styles. You can ride vert, street, dirt, race and much more. GT's are good bikes and so are Haro's, but since Hoffman's have shown up they have blown away all the competition. The new Hoffman George was voted #1 performance bike of the year. To have a good bike you need a good >> frame, brakes, handle bars, pegs, rim & tires and of course you need a gyro. for more bike information visit Hoffman Bikes.
Skate >> Skating has become very popular in just the last few years in Canada, but has been going strong for many years inthe U.S.A. especially in California. Since I don't know a lot about skatin' I can't really tell you about products etc. I just think it's cool to watch and they make some great videos.
