Ripstik & Wave board history
By Sebastian Michel and Isabel Querzola MS2

You may believe the Wave board is the original, but it was actually just the first brand that sold in the US. The original inventor of this two-wheeled skateboard was a Korean man who sold it in Korea by another name. Two American asked for the rights of the board and offered to pay money in order to build and sell it. The men however only paid the inventor 10% of what they promised, so the inventor took the idea to the Razor scooter company where they named the board the Ripstik.
Lamborghini designs four-door prototype!
Lamborghini has made us very, very interested in the last weeks, in their new four-door prototype, the Estoque. It looks just like their Reventon but with four doors, a front engine with less power, and some changes to the chassis. It lies fully in the trend with its long front and short rear deck and two huge very Reventon-like air intakes. In the back it has a very nice carbon diffuser and a huge Reventon-like exhaust.
Lamborghini made us even more interested by telling us that we could expect a 560 Hp engine from the Gallardo LP 560-4 as well as a four-wheel drive system. It might show up at the Paris motor show this year.It is said that it will be put on the market to compete with the Porsche Panamera and the Aston Martin Rapide.
