Stair Rover Eight-Wheeled Skateboard by Po-Chih Lai

In an effort to create a skateboard capable of handling more than the typical city streets, sidewalks and rails, Royal College of Art graduate Po-Chih Lai has crafted the Stair Rover. Sporting modified trucks that house four wheels each as opposed to the usual two, the eight-wheeled Stair Rover is able to traverse flights of stairs with ease due to the pivoting action of the unique design. Captured on film by Juriaan Booij, the Stair Rover is on display now as a part of Show RCA 2012 in London.
