Turbospoke Scoops Gold!!

 

Turbospoke has been awarded Gold in the 2012 Toyology Outdoor Toy Awards! Turbospoke faced off stiff competition from leading toy brands to walk away with a win in the 'Best Accessory' category of the coveted awards.

 

The Toyology awards are unlike any other because all of the winners are chosen by kids! 30 Children formed the judging panel at this years awards. The result of this was best summed up by Lewis Tyler of Toy News who said 

“The Toyology Outdoor Toy Award winners were decided entirely by kids – which makes the event genuinely unique, and also means the winners badge is proof that a product actually provides a level of play that children respect”.

 

We are extremely proud of the award here at Turbospoke and have posted it onto the front page of our website, look!

 

 

 

 

A big thank you to Peter Jenkinson of Toyology for coordintaing the awards and of course to the judging panel for choosing Turbospoke!

 

If you're a retailer and would like to stock Turbospoke in your store, visit the distributor page of our website and find your nearest distributor.

I want to hear how fast I'm going and I want to hear volume. Turbospoke is the only company in the industry with that kind of support. I really believe that their product is going to take my riding to a level that has never existed before" -Eric Lawrenuk

This announcement also represents Turbospokes first ever team up with world renowned photographer and extreme sports videographer Brad Walton. The quality of Brad's photgraphy and editing is unquestionable and the video creation seen here is a testament to his hard work and love of what he does.

 

Cove Bikes USA also deserve a strong mention. They were integral in this tie-up and have provided amazing access to their team riders and have opened up the world of professional extreme sports to a level of fun only a product like Turbospoke can provide!!
