Abstract: A street paddle assembly for propelling, balancing, and slowing the user upon a skateboard includes a shaft, a tube, and a foot. The shaft comprises a plurality of sections, which are selectively mutually engageable so that the sections are linearly oriented. A connector engaged to each of the plurality of sections is positioned to retain the sections in proximity when the sections are mutually disengaged. The foot is engaged to a lower end of the shaft and can frictionally engage a surface. The tube is selectively engageable to an upper end of the shaft and extends bidirectionally therefrom. The tube and the shaft can be grasped in a respective hands of a user, positioning the user to utilize the assembly. Each of a pair of caps selectively engageable to a respective opposed endpoint of the tube retain an article positioned in the tube.
Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to pusher tips including a body with a top section and a base section. The top section can be configured for attachment to a paddle shaft and the base section can be configured for placement against a surface. The base section can define a substantially convex, continuous and planar surface. Exemplary embodiments are also directed to pusher tip systems and paddle shafts.
