My competitors say the tiny single tiny caster is unsafe, unstable, and offers no advantages over traditional designs, to which I say: wow, why are you guys so mean? I thought we were friends!

There’s also a huge 0-wheels market. Just think how cool wheel-free skates and boards are.

Idk, you'd have to be a wizard to make that look cool. Like Gandalf the Grey or Shaun the White.

Mattel cornered that market in 2015, but for some reason that timeline got erased.

^(I guess that timeline glitch happened due to Harambe?)^
