+===Accel Bladeboard===
+An accel board has a telescopic shaft, with one of the 3 or 4 blade wheels on each segment. The board's length can change by up to 15cm, and this is used as a throttle for the motorised wheel at the rear. On many boards, the rear wheel has its own boot-lug rather than being connected to the shaft, allowing the rider to lift it off the ground momentarily by tilting his foot.

+The Vector-G was obviously targetted more at experienced bladers. It was still sold without a motor for legal reasons (being the health and safety legislation on many worlds), but as the wheel was now a common size it could easily be exchanged for a motor taken from just about any street bladeboard. Now, the position of the rear foot relative to the angle of the board was used to rotate the blade wheels, while the rear wheel could either stay parallel with the others or with the board.

	Bladeboards are sometimes available in sports shops, but most gang bladers will disregard these entirely. They seem to rely entirely on [[makeshift]] manufacturing by other members of their gang.

	A fast (and sometimes dangerous) form of transport. The bladeboard is simply a metal or plastic rod 40 to 60cm in length, with several wheels mounted along it. At either end are lugs which can clip onto the bottom of suitably designed blader boots. The wheels (usually with the exception of a larger balance wheel at one end) are usually simple metal discs with quite a sharp edge. This means that the wheels can be pushed into the narrow groove which protects the power feed in many inner-city monorail systems, drawing enough current along the length of the board to power a light motor in the larger end wheel.
