Abstract: Embodiments herein provide a kick scooter comprising of 4 main assemblies: a center deck, a front wheel assembly, a rear wheel assembly, and a handle assembly, where these 4 assemblies have means to be easily and quickly separated from, and attached to, each other. The scooter allows the user to collapse the whole scooter into a compact volume so that it can be carried in a small backpack and be able to be reassembled for use in a few seconds and without any tools.

Abstract: A skateboard is provided with a deck providing a support platform for the user, a front and rear wheel sets and trucks coupled to the deck. The support platform may include a central portion and raised front and rear portions. The front and rear portions may angle upwardly from the central portion, and then angle downwardly. The trucks may be coupled to the deck at the downwardly angled portions. The front and rear trucks may each include a pair of torsion springs alongside a kingpin. The hardness of the torsion springs may be varied to alter the performance of the skateboard depending on the characteristics of the user. A foot-operated brake may be mounted to the rear portion of the support platform. The deck may include a hinged portion located between the front and rear portions with a handle located in the hinged portion of the deck. The torsion springs may be provided with an identifier based upon their hardness. In certain examples that identifier may be a color coding system.
