That's what Riddell's new SpeedFlex helmet does ... along with a few other interesting things.  <a href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/riddell-speedflex-football-helmet/33693/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="33679"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="clear_both"> <h2> <a href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/jolt-sensor-athlete-headwear-vibrate-concussion/33679/">Clip-on Jolt Sensor vibrates when there's a risk of concussion</a> </h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/author/nick-lavars/">Nick Lavars</a></div> <div class="date">September 4, 2014</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/jolt-sensor-athlete-headwear-vibrate-concussion/33679/pictures">4 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/jolt-sensor-athlete-headwear-vibrate-concussion/33679/"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20140914215240im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/jolt_sensor-3.jpg" title="The Jolt Sensor is designed for sports where participants are at the risk of receiving a c..." alt="The Jolt Sensor is designed for sports where participants are at the risk of receiving a c..."/> </a> <div class="summary"> <p> Heightened awareness of brain injuries and their enduring impacts has seen emphasis grow on immediate concussion testing.

Apparently no one has gotten it quite right (or there's a good deal of money to be made), because it pops up again and again, going back so far as the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/go/1191/" target="_blank">StreetCarver</a> from none other than BMW, right through recent designs like <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/swing-blade-skateboard-carves-and-climbs/33166/" target="_blank">Swing Blade</a> and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/lean-skateboard-multi-link-wheels/31791/" target="_blank">Lean Board</a>. Another major skateboard trend during that time has been the electrified skateboard, exemplified by products like the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/marbel-worlds-lightest-electric-vehicle/32202/" target="_blank">Marbel Board</a> and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/yuneec-electric-longboard/30653/" target="_blank">Yuneec E-Go</a>. The all-new Leif skateboard digs a niche between those two categories by offering a snowboard-inspired ride that's sharpened by an electric driveline. Call it an electric snowboard for the streets.  <a href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/leif-electric-skateboard-carves-like-its-on-snow/33475/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="33437"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="clear_both"> <h2> <a href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/nike-house-of-mamba-basketball-court/33437/">Nike creates LED motion-tracking basketball court</a> </h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/author/stu-robarts/">Stu Robarts</a></div> <div class="date">August 22, 2014</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/nike-house-of-mamba-basketball-court/33437/pictures">5 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20140914215240/http://www.gizmag.com/nike-house-of-mamba-basketball-court/33437/"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20140914215240im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/nike-house-of-mamba-led-basketball-court-8.jpg" title="Nike's House of Mamba basketball court" alt="Nike's House of Mamba basketball court"/> </a> <div class="summary"> <p> LEDs are being phased into use everywhere from living rooms to offices to car headlights to street-lighting.
