What Makes the Kickboard Original Different?
Lean to steer, like surfing
Micro Kickboards use weight-transfer steering: lean left or right to turn. Micro describes it as the ultimate feeling of surfing, and calls this model the successor of the original Kickboard by K2, a great success in 1999.
Interchangeable T-bar and Joystick
Switch between the Joystick and the T-bar whenever you like. The handlebar adjusts from 69.5 to 102 cm, and a plastic guide inside the tube keeps adjustment smooth and stops the aluminium tubes rubbing or seizing.
Flexible deck and heat-resistant brake
The patented wood and fibreglass deck, 14 cm wide and 44 cm long, sways with your movement to absorb shocks and vibration for a particularly smooth ride. Wheels are 120 mm front / 100 mm rear PU (87° Shore A), and the brake has a rubber insert that stops it heating up too quickly. This model won the ISPO Brand New Award and the International Design Prize Baden-Württemberg.

Jollymap Recommendation
A Kickboard steers by leaning rather than by turning the handlebar, so practise first in an open, flat area and wear a properly fitted helmet. Not sure whether it suits the rider's height, or want to confirm which version you will receive? Before ordering, chat with us or message our Facebook page.
