The skateboarding world is on the brink of an epic transformation.

Say hello to Skateboard Brakes - a groundbreaking innovation brought to life by a group of young visionaries. This is the inspirational story of these trailblazers, challenging conventions and reshaping a time-honored activity.

Skate Brake™: A Disruptive Force in the Multi-Billion Dollar Skate Industry

From an outsider's perspective, one might ponder why traditional skateboards and longboards have never before featured brakes. Now that they do, the question lingers: How will the multi-billion-dollar industry react to this seismic shift?

Charlie Cannon, the founder of VibeRide, firmly believes that "as a lifelong skater, brakes belong on every non-freestyle board on earth."

Up until now, skateboarders have relied on the art of 'foot-braking,' a technique that entails riders balancing on one foot while dragging their shoe along the ground.

With this innovative system, riders can simply press down on a brake pedal, akin to a scooter, enabling them to enjoy hills, maintain control, and protect their shoes from degradation.

Meet the Extraordinary 23-Year-Old Millionaire Behind VibeRide

What makes this story truly extraordinary isn't just the product; it's the remarkable founder who is making it all happen. At the helm of VibeRide is the 23-year-old internet wiz, Charlie Cannon. He's not your typical 23-year-old; he's a professional skier, multi-millionaire business owner, social media influencer, and now the president of VibeRide.

Cannon's journey began as an extreme skier, signing an athlete contract at the tender age of 18 to perform jaw-dropping stunts for the prestigious ski brand J Skis. He used his social media experience to garner tens of millions of organic views on his videos.

A year later, he embarked on his first entrepreneurial venture, EXO Drones, at the age of 19.

Starting as a complex camera drone manufacturing company in his parents' garage, it skyrocketed to success, raking in over 15 million dollars in sales within its first two years.

In 2021, Cannon's EXO Drones became the fastest-growing drone company globally, before it was sold for a substantial sum the following summer.

At the age of 22, Cannon acquired and filed for six skateboard brake patents, laying the foundation for VibeRide. The current public response strongly indicates that Cannon is poised for yet another monumental success.

Overwhelming Public Support Fuels Global Potential

In a mere three months, VibeRide has already recorded sales in the hundreds of thousands of dollars for their innovative skateboard brake, with monthly sales growing exponentially.

The social media waves are surging as well, with VibeRide's videos amassing millions of views.

Notably, the influential YouTube channel, Braille Skateboarding, with over 6 million followers and an iconic reputation, featured a video showcasing the brake system, which swiftly became their most-watched video to date.

When queried about the response from the skateboarding community, Cannon stated, "The VibeRide founders are lifelong boarders with the street cred to make brakes the new norm. We're not targeting beginners; we're appealing to skaters like us, and the beginners are following suit."

Having enjoyed early success with seasoned riders, the youthful VibeRide team is now focused on expanding their product line to include budget-friendly options catered to beginners.

Stay Tuned for the Unfolding Story

VibeRide's remarkable ascent to success is an ever-evolving narrative. From a college dorm room to the global stage, the journey of a trio of twenty-year-olds pursuing their passions may very well redefine an iconic pastime.

Keep a watchful eye out the next time a skateboard zooms past, because sooner than later, you might just spot a brake-equipped board.
