ZBOARD

ZBoard is made up of mechanical engineers with a passion for skateboarding, snowboarding, and surfing. They come from backgrounds in Robotics and Product Design and are trained in a wide variety of disciplines including CAD, CNC Machining, Computer Programming, and Electrical Engineering. The idea for the ZBoard came to us while brainstorming for their senior project at the University of Southern California. Tired of bikes getting stolen and having to push skateboards up hills and over Los Angeles’ notoriously uneven streets, their goal was clear: design a device that is faster and easier to ride than a skateboard, and more fun and portable than a bike.
