3. Mobilegs Crutches, Jeff Weber - Necessity being the mother of invention, Embody Chair designer Jeff Weber‘s broken heel led to the extensive review, assessment, and redesign of the modern crutch. The result is an assisted mobility solution that provides function, agility, and tremendous comfort to the injured. Get a leg up at Mobilegs.

4. Xanadu Surfboards – Named for their designer who started shaping surfboards at 15, Xanadu high-performance boards champion the entry, foils, rockers, and outlines that, with some “good push and a little bit of pocket” (that’s surfer wave lingo), will have you smacking the lip in no time. Drop in to Xanadu for yours.

5. Embody Chair, Bill Stumpf and Jeff Weber - High performance, not high pressure — that’s part of what makes the Embody Chair work so hard for you. By keeping support in place no matter how you move, oxygen and blood flow are stimulated, improving your body’s performance. You stay focused, alert, and energized. Take a test drive at Herman Miller.

6. Fiat 500 Abarth Performance Sports Car – Remember the Fiat commercial with J-Lo driving around “the block”? This is not that car. This is the turbocharged, 160-horsepower, MultiAir engine, bat-out-of-hell Charlie Sheen version. As Mr. Sheen himself might say, “Winning!” See more at Fiatusa.com.
