Press Release Body: Gas prices now force consumers and commuters to consider
alternatives to fuel burning vehicles, especially for short commute trips.
TrailSkate offers a new form of personal transportation that is both fun and
healthy.

One small step to reduce global warming, every time you TrailSkate instead of
driving, you eliminate CO2 emissions, reduce your dependency on foreign oil, and
save money at the gas pumps.

Manufactured by Gateskate, Inc. in Richland, Washington; TrailSkate was awarded "New
Sports Product of the Year" by the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association.

Used by Olympic athletes and Nordic skiers for training; hundreds of other
recreational athletes TrailSkate for the sheer joy of off-road skating.

Equipped with 8 X 2 inch air tires, hand operated hydraulic brakes, and a boot that
fits over the user's own shoes, TrailSkate provides skaters of all ages and ability
a viable, fun, and healthy form of personal transportation, suitable for any bike
path or trail.

TrailSkate inventor and founder of Gateskate, Inc., Patrick Gates is looking for a
few good skaters. In a new Gateskate initiative to promote skating as a viable form
of personal transportation, the company is offering a "Get Paid to Have Fun"
referral program to customers who assist Gateskate in spreading the word.

40 percent of all travel trips are 2 miles or less.
The average Park-and-Ride commuter travels 2 miles to transit access.
53 percent of all people nationwide live less than two miles from the nearest public
transportation route.
74.1 percent of all commute trips were made by Single Occupant Vehicles (SOV's).

TrailSkate commutes replace short distance motor-vehicle trips, which are the least
fuel-efficient and generate the most pollution per mile traveled.

Moreover, three activities can be accomplished at once: travel, exercise and FUN.

Corporations interested in co-promotion opportunities and Commute Trip Reduction
programs concerning Single Occupant Vehicles are encouraged to contact Gateskate
about Clean Air Act initiatives and Federal tax incentives.

For persons interested in a fun and healthy form of personal transportation that
saves you gas money and helps the environment, call Gateskate, Inc. at our toll free
number 800 936 5330, visit our website www.gateskate.com, or email about our "Get
Paid to Have Fun" referral program at info@gateskate.com.
