Origins

About the Company


Since 2008, Stowboard distribution has been led by dedicated Stowboard rider, Bioengineering student, and green transportation advocate Jason Pong.  in September 2008 Mr. Pong redesigned the rear wheels and had them produced by a major wheel manufacturer in Southern California.  The new “V-2 wheels” are more durable and deliver a board that carves stronger, more powerful turns than the originals.  ALL new Stowboards sold through stowboard.net come equipped with the new “V-2” wheels pre-installed.  owners of the original model may order a set of v2 rear wheels, here.


Jason Pong says, “In addition to being the only board I know of that you can fold up, a lot of people don’t realize the Stowboard is just as easy, or possibly even easier to ride than a normal skateboard.  I say this because It gives you a lower center of gravity due to its unique design.  With the Stowboard you stand approximately 1.5” off the ground as compared to about 5” for even the lowest longboard. This lower center of gravity allows you to transfer more power with each push as well as to react more quickly to the road beneath you. I believe that in most scenarios the Stowboard is superior to every other personal transportation option.” (check out our comparison page to see why).


"Personally I use my stowboard each and every day on campus and in the neighborhood.  I always keep one in my car in case I have to park any distance from my intended destination.  Due to its low center of gravity I can deftly maneuver through even the densest crowds, such as sunday afternoon on the venice boardwalk or monday morning on campus.  Whenever I travel I am sure to have my stowboard with me.  I have silently Stowboarded through terminals all over the world with my rolling suitcase trailing behind me. I get a lot of interested looks but I have never been given any problem from airport management.  They apparently think it’s the latest in travel accessories because I am pretty sure I couldn’t get away with the same thing on a normal skateboard.  In some airports the time savings has been the difference in making a flight or not.  Finally when I hit the ground in a new city, the Stowboard combined with public transport (and my iPhone) allow me to easily get around anywhere.  Honestly, due to it’s speed, maneuverability, portability and discreetness I never leave the house without it.”


“I have calculated that riding a Stowboard instead of walking saves me an average of over half an hour per day, which if you do the math, adds up to 7.6 days per year.  That’s right, that is more than one actual week per year!  Therefore it is not an exaggeration to say that My conception of time and space has changed thanks to the Stowboard - Instead of setting aside15-20 minutes to walk across campus I know it will take only two minutes with the Stowboard.  The Stowboard allows me to transverse space in less time.  Basically I get an extra year of life per year thanks to the Stowboard.”
