The Shaggo Grom skateboard is advertised as ‘the only shag carpet embedded skateboard.’ A surprise to no-one. It promises reduced vibration and a silky smooth ride as well as feeling really nice between your toes.

Apparently these things used to be all the rage for kids which makes me long for a better childhood than I received. There was no shag carpet at home let alone on my skateboard. Enough about me, the board is available in six colours described as ‘righteous’ and with neon wheels this is the perfect gift to get your kids skating while making sure their tootsies are kept cosy.

Funding Status: The Shaggo Grom has raised $21,931 of its $15,000 target.
