# Super-Sized Skateboards The World's Largest Skateboard Debuts at Camp Woodward By Meghan Young | Published 2010-07-10 | Unique Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/worlds-largest-skateboard References: [thedesignblog.org](http://www.thedesignblog.org/entry/worlds-largest-skateboard-on-a-suicidal-mission/) & [californiaskateparks](http://californiaskateparks.com) Trend Hunter has covered many super-sized creations before, but I don't think any of them have actually endangered lives before -- that is, until the World's Largest Skateboard took to the grass at Camp Woodward. This is no trick of the camera, my friends. Those are real people atop that skateboard, not toys. The World's Largest Skateboard does not offer a safe ride. Check out the video of campers, staff and California Skateparks owner Joe Ciaglia test out this crazy creation. The word 'disaster' doesn't cover the outcome. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 33% | Activity: 96% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) > [Bizarre](https://www.trendhunter.com/bizarre) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Super-sized Creations:** Exploring the trend of creating oversized versions of everyday objects and activities, offering unique and attention-grabbing experiences. - **Extreme Sports:** Embracing the trend of pushing the limits in sports and recreation, providing adrenaline-pumping and thrilling experiences. - **Giant Propagandas:** Examining the trend of using oversized objects for promotional purposes, capturing attention and creating memorable experiences. ### Who This Affects Most - **Event Planning and Recreation:** Opportunity for event planners and recreational facilities to incorporate super-sized creations as a unique selling point and attract customers seeking unconventional experiences. - **Advertising and Marketing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for advertising agencies to leverage giant props as attention-grabbing marketing tools, capturing audience's attention and creating brand awareness. - **Sports Equipment Manufacturing:** Opportunity for sports equipment manufacturers to develop specialized super-sized equipment for extreme sports enthusiasts, catering to the growing demand for unique experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Skateboard Design Museum Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skateboard-exhibition.md) - [Rideable Sandcastle Courses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rideable-sandcastle-course.md) - [Skateable Cardboard Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cardboard-chaos.md) - [Skateboard-Inspired Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bustin-boards-skatex.md) - [Lounge Chair-Inspired Skateboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eames-lounge-cruiser.md) - [Recycled Material Skateboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lander-skateboard.md) - [Accessible First-Time Skateboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/redo-skateboards.md) - [Two-Wheeled Surfing-Inspired Skateboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surf-skateboard.md) - [Upcycled Skateboard Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-rpsd.md)
