Interactive Jib Box - Lights Up When You Ride!

3 comments 03:34PM Tue, 20th November 2012

It was probably only a matter of time before some bright spark (or should that be bright sparky?) decided to combine one of those 70′s Saturday Night Fever-style dancefloors with a jib box, but hats off to the enterprising Swedish crew Floda 31 who got there first. This thing is rad!

While the prototype is cool enough in itself, it’s the possibilities here that really excite us. Imagine the shots you’d get if you decked out a darkened dome with obstacles that all lit up? And why stop at simple light-up panels? Why not get strobes, lightning flashes or even add arcade style sound effects? Shit, you could have go proper old-school and have a full-on snowboard pinball game! How sick would that be?

Tristan first stepped on a snowboard at the age of 12, and (despite being a bit rubbish) has made a point of riding as often as possible since. He joined Whitelines in 2009, and writes, shoots, films and edits for both the magazine and the website. Having headed up the team in charge of the Whitelines Buyers' Guide for the past four seasons knows more about the geeky side of snowboard kit than anyone should ever have to know.
