Sparking skateboard deck rails

Abstract

Skateboard devices are configured to spark when slid along frictional surfaces. The devices include a rail or pair of rails that include one or more sparking elements integrated into the rail body. The sparking elements may be a linear set. Another device may be configured to wrap partially around a skateboard truck assembly. The device may include multiple rows of speaking elements. One or more rows of sparking elements may be engaged depending on how much tile is applied to a nose or tail of the skateboard.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A skateboard accessory device, comprising:
 a rail, including a rail body wherein:
 the rail body has a length and a width and the length is greater in magnitude than the width, and 
 the rail body is configured for attachment to an underside of a skateboard deck; and 
   one or more sparking elements integrated into the rail body, wherein the one or more sparking elements include an end surface exposed from the rail body and are disposed to make contact with an external surface below the skateboard deck.   
     
     
         2 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more sparking elements comprise a mischmetal. 
     
     
         3 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more sparking elements comprise flint. 
     
     
         4 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 1 , further comprising one or more pockets in the rail body configured to receive the one or more sparking elements. 
     
     
         5 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more sparking elements protrude from the rail body. 
     
     
         6 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 1 , wherein the rail body is rectangular. 
     
     
         7 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 6 , wherein the rail body has a length to width ratio of at least 2.5 to 1. 
     
     
         8 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more sparking elements are 4 mm to 6 mm in diameter. 
     
     
         9 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more sparking elements protrude at least 1 mm from an exterior surface of the rail body. 
     
     
         10 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more sparking elements protrude no more than 4 mm from an exterior surface of the rail body. 
     
     
         11 . The skateboard accessory device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more sparking elements are removable from the rail body.
