Because, In Bizarro World, PS3s Are Skateboards

   Hey, technology, call the hell down already. You don’t have to go barrelling forward at hyperspeed all the time, like you’re the T-1000 desperately trying to run down John Connor in your big ol’ truck. Take it easy. 

The shit-your-pants futuristic world of 2016 is a hard one to keep up with. You can buy a new TV/PC/cell phone and find that the top of the range model you chose has been superseded twelve times before you’ve even left the store.  Where does this leave us? In a constant state of having to update our devices, that’s where.

We don’t have to, natch; Kindles don’t have expiry dates after which they’ll send a 10,000 volt pulse straight through our gonads if we try to power them on. But we want to, because there’s always some new and damnedly tempting model being released.  

The real question, then, is what do we do with all the unwanted last-gen tech we have laying around? The obvious, completely-not-batshit-at-all answer: turn it into a skateboard.  

Yes indeed. As Destructoid reports, pro skater Aaron Kyro has made himself a board from a PS3 slim. It’s not the most practical board, and it looks like hell, but it sure works. Check it out –from construction to full ollie-ing action—in the clip below.
