See if you can figure out which one of the guys over at Bossco International skates. I can’t imagine how else they were inspired to cash in on the lucrative downhill sliding glove economy, and yes, I say that with tongue in cheek. Apparently these things didn’t sell to well, becasue they are only a year old and seem to have been discontinued. I’m not sure how they failed, seeing as how they were targeting the twin brotherhood of “extreme skaters” and in-line skaters. Do those guys even do downhill? Have to give Bossco credit for innovation though. They could have gone with plastic cutting boards velcroed on a glove, but instead they came up with massive plastic thimbles and rollerballs in the palm. Not bad for a company who’s current product line up consists entirely of LED lights stuck on other things.
Bossco International Shred’rs sliding gloves. You know it’s hard core when they make up a new spelling, except I fear the area just past where the finger cots stop would end up as ground beef if you had to lay your palm flat at speed. Enlarge-o-rama.

Hamburgers are usually a feature of fast food restaurants. The hamburgers served in major fast food establishments are usually mass-produced in factories and frozen for delivery to the site. These hamburgers are thin and of uniform thickness, differing from the traditional American hamburger prepared in homes and conventional restaurants, which is thicker and prepared by hand from ground beef. ”

I saw these fail. They got sent to some kids on silverfish to review who instantly broke them riding at slow speeds. they never even made it to the high speed tests. The roller balls stick, the finger pucks just fall off and then the glove tears. FAIL

It’s the terminator version of the Hamburger Helper Hand.

Never seen these in actual use. Not surprised either. Jeez are they bulky and probably expensive too. A piece of cutting board velcroed to a glove works fine for me.

That glove has a slight resemblance to the Hamburger Helper helping hand.
