Think of Orbit Wheel Skates as a mix "between a skateboard and inline skates, but with more freedom and simplicity than either." Video after the break.

They're essentially wheels that you slip your feet through the middle of, letting you scoot around sideways until you go over a curb or a rut and end up on the ground.

It seems to me you'd have to know how to skateboard before using these. I can rollerblade but it looks like doing it sideways is pretty difficult. Not sure I'd try it, falling on my ass is not among my hobbies :P
