A riser for a skateboard with an integrated Bluetooth transceiver, the riser attaching between the deck and truck of the skateboard. Wireless transfer of information from device to device, such as between a mobile phone and the riser, is enabled. The output signal from the transceiver is coupled to a digital audio amplifier for providing an audio signal to persons within the listening area of the riser.

Systems and methods for intelligent data center power management and energy market disaster recovery comprised of data collection layer, infrastructure elements, application elements, power elements, virtual machine elements, analytics/automation/actions layer, analytics or predictive analytics engine, automation software, actions software, energy markets analysis layer and software and intelligent energy market analysis elements or software. Plurality of data centers employ the systems and methods comprised of a plurality of Tier 2 data centers that may be running applications, virtual machines and physical computer systems to enable data center and application disaster recovery from utility energy market outages. Systems and methods may be employed to enable application load balancing and data center power load balancing across a plurality of data centers may lead to financial benefits when moving application and power loads from one data center location using power during peak energy hours to another data center location using power during off-peak hours.

An “L” shaped bracket is disclosed that is mounted onto a skateboard truck mounting base using one pre-existing corner bolt that provides a means to mount a clip which holds a removable light. The light casts illumination towards the front and/or back of the board allowing the skateboarder to see a path in front of them in the dark and to be visible to others.

Quick release systems and methods are provided which may be used with a skate assembly comprising a boot, a soul plate, and a grind plate. A first component, which may be a soul plate, has a tab and slot engagement mechanism. A second component, which may be a grind plate, defines at least one aperture and is engaged with at least a portion of the first component. At least one push button is accessible via the at least one aperture. When the second component is in an inward position it maintains the tab and slot engagement mechanism in a locked position and when the second component is in an outward position it unlocks the tab and slot engagement mechanism. When the push button is not pressed, it maintains the second component in the inward position and when the push button is pressed it facilitates movement of the second component to the outward position.

Motorized skating systems and methods for controlling the systems are disclosed. One exemplary system may include a primary skate and a secondary skate. The primary skate may include a sensor configured to detect a tilting signal. The primary skate may also include a first processor. The processor may be configured to determine a first control signal for moving the primary skate based on the tilting signal and determine a motion signal for moving the secondary skate based on the first control signal. The primary skate may further include a first communication interface configured to send the motion signal to the secondary skate. The secondary skate may include a second communication interface configured to receive the motion signal from the first communication interface. The secondary skate may also include a second processor configured to determine a second control signal for moving the secondary skate based on the received motion signal.

A skateboard deck includes: a body with a top surface and a lateral centerline, the body including a nose portion with a nose apex and a tail portion with a tail apex, wherein the nose apex and the tail apex are above the top surface of the body; wherein the total length of the body spans from a forwardmost surface of the body located along the nose portion to a rearmost surface of the body located along the tail portion, further wherein the nose apex is located between the length defined by the forwardmost surface of the body and the lateral centerline and the tail apex is located between the length defined by the rearmost surface of the body and the lateral centerline.
