About the Invention
The Pocket Skateboard Stand was developed from a simple but overlooked problem: skateboards are easy to ride, but awkward to park. When not in use, they are often left flat on the floor, leaned against furniture, hidden in corners, or placed in walkways where they can become clutter, obstacles, or trip hazards. Inventor Alcides Cruz created a compact, portable solution that allows a skateboard to stand upright without a wall, rack, hook, or permanent installation. The result is a patented skateboard stand technology designed for safety, visibility, portability, display, and real-world convenience.
Unlike traditional skateboard stands that are bulky, stationary, or built for fixed environments, the Pocket Skateboard Stand is designed to move with the rider. It can be carried in a pocket, backpack, locker, or gear bag, then opened in seconds whenever the board needs a place to stand. Its value is not limited to personal use. The product also creates commercial opportunities for skate shops, schools, sporting events, retailers, sponsors, competitions, and branded promotional campaigns. It is a simple device with multiple applications: safer storage, cleaner spaces, upright display, sponsor visibility, and event-based merchandising.
About the Inventor
Alcides Cruz is the inventor behind the Pocket Skateboard Stand, a patented mechanical skateboard support designed to give riders a practical way to park and display their boards anywhere. His invention addresses a problem that has existed for decades in skateboarding culture: the board is mobile, but most storage solutions are not. By creating a pocket-sized stand that can travel with the skater, Cruz introduced a new category of skateboard accessory built around portability, stability, and everyday use.
The invention reflects a practical understanding of how skateboards are actually used in homes, schools, shops, skateparks, competitions, and public spaces. Rather than relying on a large rack, wall-mounted holder, or fixed display system, the Pocket Skateboard Stand allows the board to stand upright wherever it is needed. That simplicity is what gives the invention its strength. It is easy enough for kids to use, useful enough for adults, and commercially flexible enough for retailers, sponsors, and event organizers.
