We’re well into the 21st century, so perhaps it’s not surprising that somebody finally decided to render the tried-and-true skateboard a major update. Enter the Post Modern Skateboard—at least, that’s how it’s being marketed. Thing is, this contraption has no board to speak of.

A Chromecast is just about the cheapest (and best)
