[Budnitz No.1 Scorcher Titanium](http://budnitzbicycles.com/bicycles/view/scorcher) $6,440 | The disc brakes and maintenance-free carbon belt drive on this city bike make it great for commuting, but Budnitz’s murdered-out Scorcher isn’t ready to hang it up at quittin’ time. The burly titanium frame and knobby Schwalbe tires are just as capable at shredding singletrack as they are cruising the bike lane. Plus, with that matte-black paint job and inverted handlebars, it just looks *mean*.

[Spalding ABA Basketball](http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=41557156) $126 | You can’t go as hard in the paint as you used to. But with a piece of hoops history, you can still school opponents on the court. Turn back the shot clock to the early ’70s and the glory days of the American Basketball Association with the league’s iconic red-white-and-blue ball.

[On Cloudracer Shoe](https://www.on-running.com/en-us/products/cloudracer) $130 | The cloud: A welcoming place for your data—and your feet. The treads on these runners are made of puffy, spring-like nubs that provide a soft landing and a propulsive forward step.

[Fitbit Surge Fitness Super Watch](http://www.fitbit.com/surge) $250 | This water-resistant sports wearable logs your physical activity (heart rate, distance, steps, sleep) and uses GPS to track your jogging routes. While you’re putting in the miles, it shows phone notifications and controls your music. It’s on the large side, but with a solid week of battery life, you’ll run out of energy before it does.

[Withings Activité](http://www2.withings.com/us/en/products/activite) $450 | Who says a fitness tracker needs to look like a chunky future-bracelet? Or that a fancy watch should only tell time? The Withings Activité manages to hide a robust array of sensors inside a water-resistant timepiece that feels as natural on your wrist as a pair of 18-karat cuff links.

[Microsoft Band](http://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-band/en-us) $250 | Redmond’s updated bracelet goes way beyond step counting. When you wear a Band, it can track your heart rate, sleep, and all different sorts of exercise. It’ll even guide you through sets and reps, counting them with you. When you’re finished, ask Cortana how to get to the juice bar.

[Oru Coast Kayak](http://www.orukayak.com/oru-coast-kayak) $1,975 | A kayaking trip can entail some serious logistics, but this 16-foot vessel makes them easy.

[Lost Puddle Jumper Ecoboard](http://www.lostsurfboards.net/boards/the-puddle-jumper/) | Surfers love the ocean, but the foams and resins in their boards are toxic. Thanks to new industry standards outlined by Sustainable Surf's [Ecoboard Project](http://www.sustainablesurf.org/ecoboard/), you can order boards from top shapers made with environmentally friendly materials. Try a bamboo deck, [recycled foam](http://markofoamblanks.net/), or [bioresin](https://entropyresins.com/why-use-super-sap/). This one, custom-made for Third Eye Blind’s Stephan Jenkins, was shaped by [Lost](http://www.lostsurfboards.net/) and glassed by [Earth Technologies](http://www.etechsurf.com/#home-surfboards).
