Speed skaters looking for the world’s fastest
Speedskate are sure to be interested in the new gripSPEEDER 2.1 created by
funMACHINES based in Germany.
The gripSPEEDER is the first Speedskate equipped
with a real chassis It weighs just 277g, equipped this with two ultra-light,
relatively hard speed wheels in the front and rear, mounted on a lightweight
suspension fork constructed from titanium and finished with three lightweight
soft grip wheels in the middle you have the ultimate racing skate, according to
its developers. “There were always only two possibilities for skaters.
Either
they opted for higher speed and renounced better grip or the other way around.
However, that means one decisive factor was always missing. By developing a
whole new technology according to international CIC standards and the World Federation
F.I.R.S, we combined more speed and more grip into one skate.”
The gripSPEEDER Starter Set is now available to back
for early bird backers priced at € 949 with shipping expected to take place
during December 2018 if the Kickstarter campaign is successful.
