Flip, Twist, Bend, and Sk8 with Boneless Skaters

Summer is here and it’s time to play outside! As you know, at Rural Mom, we love covering the hot trend trends throughout the season and encourage creative play. Today we’ve partnered #Boneless to bring you a first-hand look at their new super-charged shrunken skateboarding toys.

The line includes #Boneless mini, electric-powered skateboards with hyper-poseable skaters and awesome stunt playsets. Perfect for creative play indoor and out, these sets bring the skatepark home.

#Boneless Super-Charged Mini Toy Stunt Skateboard with Poseable Skaters

Six #Boneless skaters are ready to twist, flip, bend and skate across any flat surface. This includes books, the floor, a table, or any one of the play sets designed for optimum fun.

You can quick charge the board in just 15 seconds, then get ready to roll! Each skater can be set in numerous skate positions to create the coolest style ever. You can change skateboard direction with the flip of a switch. The board can even be set to reverse directions when it bumps into obstacles.

Each skater comes with a removeable, collectibe deck and power charger (takes 3 “AA” batteries, not included). Charging really is super easy and quick.

Grab your #Boneless Super-Charges Mini Toy Stunt Skateboard with Poseable Skaters to race your friends and record your own video tricks. Upload tricks to social media (with parent’s permission) and tag #Boneless and #StickTheTrick. With parents’ permission fans not on social media can share their cool trick videos via email with #Boneless at bonelessskateboards@gmail.com

PRO-TIPS for Skaters:

• For many tricks, skaters must crouch down. You need to keep their center of gravity low.
• Charge on a flat surface (not in your hand).
• PUSH DOWN ON THE CENTER OF THE BOARD (between skater’s legs).  That’s where the contacts are.
• Once you hear the board charging, keep pressing 15 seconds.  While most charge in 15 seconds, some may require a little longer.
• When lifting skater off the charger, HOLD THE BACK WHEELS. (Spinning wheels use up the charge).
• MAKE SURE DECK IS PUSHED FORWARD, before placing skater down on a smooth surface. (Deck can slide backwards during charging)
• When skaters fall, just pick them up and put them upright again.

#Boneless CrayPlay SuperStreet Skate Park

The #Boneless CrayPlay SuperStreet Skate Park looks just like the real thing! Easy to assemble, this fenced in park space lets your #Boneless skaters spend the day testing out their skills. Ride, slide, glide, flip and more over multiple ramps. You can even try a 360 flip on the Warp Rider Vert Ramp!

Each skate park set comes with graffiti stickers to help express your personal style. You can also set up the skate park set next to others sets like the Big Air Mega Ramp for even more possibilites.

Do note that stunt playsets do NOT come with Boneless Skaters. Skaters are all sold separately.

PRO-Tips for Skate Park:

• Set up Sk8Prk on a nonporous surface or the suction cups won’t stick.
• Press down suction cups. If they don’t stick, try wetting them a bit with your fingertips.
• Getting your skater to skate into the Warp Rider Vert Ramp can be challenging. Try it from close up first. Make sure to keep the directional SWITCH UP.

#Boneless CrayPlay Big Air Mega-Ramp

This 3-foot-long quarter pipe ramp will have your #Boneless Skaters showing off their maximum skateboarding skills in no time! The drop-in platform allows for maximum drop-in speed and thre adjustable ramp setting, give you plenty of options. Skaters can flip, perform long or short jumps or just simply see how far they can jump.

The ramp comes with graffiti stickers to give it a custom style that’s all your own. Set up the #Boneless Big Air Mega-Ramp next to the Super Street Skate Park and see if you can jump the fence to try the smaller ramps for your second skate trick!

PRO-TIPS for Mega-Ramp

• Charge skater for 15 seconds, or it may not have enough juice to stick the trick.
• Experiment with the two lower settings on the ramp first. These are the jump settings. TAKE OFF THE STUNT BAR and keep the directional SWITCH UP (forward only). Once you get the hang of jumping, see if you can jump over books, sneakers and other obstacles. 
• Try different poses. Crouching positions tend to work, because they lower the center of gravity.
• One pose that works is the “optimal skater pose” in the #Boneless Skater instructions. However, with the arms out, skaters can get caught at the end of the ramp. Try one arm straight out in front and the other straight out in back – or both arms up in the air.
• Flips can be tricky. Keep the directional SWITCH UP and the stunt BAR OFF.  After you master a flip without the bar, you can experiment by putting the bar on the 3 different settings to see how your skater reacts. But you actually don’t need the stunt bar. Sometimes it can cause a skater to crash and not flip.
