A brand new video has just been released showing Turbospoke in action 'Attacking The Track'!
The video was filmed recently on location in Wicklow Ireland with young riders Sennan and Jaxon aged 7 and 9 . Sennan and Jaxon really put Turbospoke through its paces on this demanding track of awesome dirt jumps, and showed off their slick skills too.
The shots were captured with a range of different cameras including a Go-Pro Hero head-cam for the rider's view.

A big thank you to the guys for all their awesome work!
In a recent posting we showed off the results of one parent's dedication to his son by building him an awesome elecrtic powered trike with twin Turbospokes.
Well, the creator Tony contacted us again with an update and some more great images of the trike. His son Tommy seems delighted with his Dad's creation and I can't blame him. We particluarly like the personalised number plate and the twin exhausts of course!
A big thank you again to Tony and Tommy for the images.
We came across this great video on YouTube of these guys in the states riding some sweet jumps with a Turbospoke on board!
It looks like a great course, and the sound from the Turbospoke is awesome. Can't wait to see the full run!
The list of retailers stocking Turbospoke, continues to grow! Recent listings from the USA & Canada show that Turbospoke is now available in 44 States in the USA and 8 States in Canada. The number of outlets is now in excess of 350 and growing all the time.

The hawkeyed amongst you will notice that the listing contains a sneak peek of the brand new 2010 version display box which will make it's official debut in the USA & Canada with Schylling Associates in June.
We thought we had seen some pretty cool Turbospoke modifications, especially when one of the team here mounted a second Turbospoke to a BMX to create a twin pipe effect.
That was until We received an email from a chap in London called Tony. Tony was in the process of building a seriously awesome trike for his 5 year old son. He used two Turbospoke to add the all important finishing touches to this one-off creation. Check it out:
I don't know about you but I reckon Tony's son has to be the luckiest 5 year old around!!
The trike is actually electric powered. It uses a 12v electric motor to propel it along. Fitted to the back of the trike are two Turbospoke exhaust pipes at a rakish angle. While they aren't hooked up to run against a spoked wheel and make the realistic sound, I think you'll agree the overall effect is absolutely awesome.
Thanks to Tony for getting in touch and sending in the pic.
