Hot Wheels, partnered with Tony Hawk, is launching a new fingerboard product line available in Canada!
Fingerboarding has always been an interesting hobby and a newly renowned sport. Imagine skateboarding but instead of your two feet, you are manipulating a finger-sized board with only two of your fingers. It takes major skills and time to perfect your ollie, kickflip and grind. The toy line plans to expand the fingerboard space with the help of Tony Hawk and some unique new products for new and old fans.
World-renowned skateboarder Tony Hawk has been in the gaming industry for a while with his hit games, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2. The Company has “teamed up with the legendary skateboarder to inspire the next generation of skaters. With our fingerboards and playsets, kids can ramp up their skills and reach amazing heights!”
Hot Wheels Skate plans to make its fingerboard line more inclusive and accessible to all ages, from beginners to experts without rules or limits. How are they planning to do this? They’re adding fingerboards that come with shoes, the perfect size for your fingers, that clip onto the boards. With these clip-on shoes, beginners will be able to execute stunts that skilled fingerboarders would have difficulty mastering.
These new Hot Wheels Skate sets will be available at Walmart, they include:
- Fingerboard + Shoe Assorted Pack – $4.99 CAD: Each fully assembled Hot Wheels fingerboard comes with a pair of stylish, removable skate shoes, designed to keep fingertips in place when learning to shred and ollie like a pro. Groms can build confidence and get the feel for the board and its movements before removing the shoes and trying more difficult manoeuvres.
