Future Motion, the maker of Onewheel, is sponsoring the World Surf League and to celebrate, the pioneer in personal mobility constructed the world's first full-scale rideable sandcastle course at the Lexus US Open of Surfing. Promising a "magical beach shredding experience," the first-of-its-kind life-size rideable sandcastle course invites surfing fans into a winding 60' x 40' path with berms and minarets.
Located near the X-Games activation on the beach, the "Shredcastle" has become an attraction that has captured the interests of curious beach-goers and people on social media.
The course brilliantly shows off the best features of Onewheel's design with a large single tire and self-balancing technology for all-terrain riding, even on packed sand, and how intuitively riders can move as they do in other board sports.
