The Hyperlite Ultamid 2 is the Ultimate UltraLight Tent

As gear becomes more and more technologically advanced, tents are becoming lighter and lighter. None, however, quite reach the lightweight, durable, simplicity of the Hyperlite Ultamid 2. Weighing only 1.19 pounds (without insert or floor), the Ultamid 2 barely weighs more than the hiking boot on your foot, and far less than a bottle of water in your pack, yet is one of the most durable, rugged and convenient tent designs you’ll get your hands on.

Albert Clock – The Clock Which Requires YOU to Calculate the Time

Today's society has it so easy with all our modern conveniences. The new Albert Clock makes you work to determine the time. It's a clock, but YOU have to calculate the hours and minutes. Where are the hands of the clock? Where is the digital readout? Where is the traditional clock? Not here! Learning to tell the time is one of the first important life skills any of us tackles. However, the Albert Clock makes the tried and true hands method pointless because it forces you to calculate the time. It’s a digital clock that mounts easily to the wall, but actually telling the time is going to require you to do some math calculations.

BajaBoard Off-Road Electric Skateboard

The only thing better than a skateboard is an electric skateboard, and the only thing better than an electric skateboard is one that can rip around dirt trails in the backcountry. So by that set of reasoning, the BajaBoard may be the best skateboard ever built. Constructed as an ATV crossed with a snowboard, the BajaBaord runs on your choice of either a 600Wh or 900Wh battery and can hit up to 31 miles per hour while zooming around the city or your local dirt trails. The large 10 inch pneumatic tires paired with independent suspension for each wheel allows the 4WD board to crunch over stumps and rocket off of jumps on rides as long as 18 miles. And for those who want realtime feedback on their speed, battery life, and throttle – the handheld remote boasts an LCD screen with feedback on all of the stats you could want. There’s even LED headlights and taillights to help you navigate through the dark.
