The Golf Skate Caddy is a single player golf transportation product that combines convenience and fun so players can focus on their performance and add more enjoyment their games. GSC’s parent company, Fiik Skateboards, has been a leader and innovator in the motorized skateboard industry for more than a decade.
GSC is equipped with the latest technology to allow users to play music and connect to their smart phones. With room for a single golf bag, a built-in cooler and cup-holder, the product adds a new element of fun and independence for players of all ages. Other features include ball and tee storage, divot fill container, umbrella cell phone and score card holders and a quick release seat.
Golf has been a game that focused on walking. The development of expansive course designs for resorts and real estate communities forced the implementation of the two-person golf cart. Now golfers can enjoy that freedom and fitness riding a Golf Skate Caddy that walking used to provide.
“I’m 61 years old and I never rode a skateboard when I was younger, so it was a bit awkward at first. I overcompensated while trying to turn but after a very short time, I realized how easy it was to control my Golf Skate Caddy. I went from kiddie speed to top speed rapidly. I was flying around the golf course and having a ball. I know younger golfers will easily gravitate to this product, but us old guys definitely should give it a try!
