Onda Board Announced New Product at Action Sports Retail Show in San Diego

Laguna Hills, CA, February 10, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Onda Board, a manufacturer of an exciting new breed of wheeled boards, announced the introduction of its new line of “Cruising Boards” at Action Sports Retail (ASR) at the San Diego Convention Center, February 3rd and 4th, 2010 in San Diego, California.

Onda Board exhibited at ASR, showcasing their revolutionary Onda Board Cruising Board, a revolutionary alternative to traditional skateboards and scooters.

Onda pushes the envelope of innovation in a class of its own.

Thanks to its patented technology, large 180mm wheels, and a sleek design, Onda cruises the pavement effortlessly, with minimum friction and enormous forward momentum, providing a full-fledged glide performance that has riders feeling like they’re levitating above ground.

By combining the large wheels, with a low center of gravity and a tight turning radius, Onda has created a wheeled “Cruising Board” that’s in a class of its own, delivering a fast and smooth ride, even on rough concrete or asphalt. It’s also user-friendly, great for pure fun, speed n’ carve rides, and perfect for those who have outgrown their kick scooters and traditional skateboards and ready to get into a way-cooler ride.

At less than 9 lbs (4 kgs), Onda can easily be taken anywhere. The Onda is affordable, because for less than an entry-level longboard, riders can enjoy the high performance of Onda's resin fiber deck, its exclusive, adjustable torsion shock system, and its fast smooth ride and carving capability provided by the large custom wheels; all unique features of the Onda Board.

About Onda Board

Onda was created by a biotech engineer and inventor whose three children commuted through college by bicycle, even though none of them really enjoyed riding bikes. He believed there must be a better way to go from point A to B on campus, and on other short distances. Bicycles have to be parked and locked outside. Kick scooters were too childish. Motor scooters are heavy and need fuel, and longboards just don’t move fast enough, and they are heavy and awkward to carry around.

Onda Board developed a product from scratch, focusing the use not only on the pure fun of riding, but also as a utilitarian means of personal transportation. The Onda is a great replacement product for kids that outgrow kick scooters and traditional skateboards. Onda was designed to roll effortlessly through the streets, and be able to carve smoothly and do sharp turns. We took advantage of our know-how and experience with high tech materials and technologies employed in the medical device industry to design and develop our unique board. After 2 years of intense R&D, we achieved our final design, a complete new product that is in a class of its own! That’s how Onda was born. It’s a cool, fun way to get around — and the perfect ride around the neighborhood, for all ages, from novice to pro.
