Foam Axe Throwing Game
Axe throwing is all the rage these days, everyone’s an angry lumberjack. Now you (and/or your kids) can get in on the action at home with this Warrior’s Mark Axe Throwing Game. It’s all the fun of hurling sharpened objects through the air without the risk of losing a limb or head because the axes are made of foam instead of deadly metal and concussion-causing wooden handles. It’s just like darts but way more badass. The foam axes have an easy-stick strip on the “blade” which lets them stick to the board when you make that perfect throw. See:
Bullseye! You can use the 26″ target either indoors or outdoors. It comes with a suction cup and door hanger to mount it wherever you want. Challenge your friends or just take out some stress in a fun way. Also includes a carry pouch so you can take it with you everywhere and of course 2 foam axes. Become an axepert! And nobody gets hurt.

Auto-tracking Dartboard Makes Everyone a Pro
When you’re at the pub, drinking all night and playing darts, I bet your aim is pretty bad. For most of us, hitting the bulls-eye becomes harder the more you drink. Not when you’re playing with Mark Rober’s motion-tracking dart board though. This board makes everyone hit the bulls-eye (if they use the right dart.)
It automatically re-positions itself based on the trajectory of the dart thrown at it. At least it makes you feel the thrill of victory, even if that victory is hollow and your lack of skill has earned you nothing. It also has the capability of intentionally missing the target no matter how good a dart player you are.
Rober and his friend spent three years designing, building, and perfecting this dartboard. It uses six Vicon motion-tracking cameras, and standard darts that have been upgraded with infrared reflectors.
It takes only 200 milliseconds for the onboard computer to predict the trajectory of a thrown dart, and another 200 milliseconds for the dartboard’s six stepper motors to move it into position. Before impact, the system can even refine the trajectory tracking and reposition the board as many as 100 times to make sure the dart hits the center.
This won’t help you if you are miles off and throw the dart on the opposite side of the room though. If you throw that badly, it’s time to stop anyway before you kill someone.

The Judge Is a Gigantic Dart Spewing NERF Weapon
The other day, I talked a bit about a new NERF gun that shoot balls at up to 70mph. I admit there is something poetic about being able to shoot an opponent in the balls with a ball, but I still prefer darts. NERF has some new dart blasters that are coming at the New York Toy Fair, and one of them is the big beast called The Judge.
Yeah it’s giant with a massive rotating cylinder that holds ten sets of three darts. Because shooting a dude in the balls with one dart is never as cool as shooting him in the balls with three darts at a time. You can also get a Zombie Strike Dreadbolt crossbow.
All you need is a vest with wings on the back and an emo haircut to be just like Daryl. NERF also has an alien themed line and you can get the Alien Menace Voidcaster, which is basically a normal dart gun with a sci-fi look. The Judge will cost $60 (USD), the crossbow sells for $50, and the Voidcaster is $20.

Foot Darts Is a Mashup of Soccer and Darts
It’s kind of amazing that we still keep coming up with new sports. Foot Sports UK has invented a fun new sport called Foot Darts. It is basically a combination of soccer and darts.
The idea is that you kick a velcro-covered soccer ball against a 23-foot high inflatable dartboard. Just like in a typical game of darts, the spot that your ball hits determines the number of points you get. You can even kick from an elevated platform if you have trouble kicking to get more vertical.
It looks like a lot of fun, and a good way to practice your goal-kicking aim. I would definitely play this game. It looks way more fun than either sport by itself.

Glow in the Dark Lawn Darts
I don’t know who came up with the idea to make throwing sharp pointed projectiles into a lawn game but I’m guessing danger was their middle name. Then again, maybe bars aren’t the best place for real darts either. No matter, traditional lawn darts are illegal in the US but now there’s safer alternatives like these Triumph Sports Glow Backyard Darts.
Each set comes with four large darts with weighted bottoms and two rings that fit in the included carrying bag. Charge everything up in the sun and the games don’t have to end when it gets dark. Throw the darts and try to get them to land in the middle of the rings. Endless fun and nobody has to lose an eye!

Star Wars Dart Board
Clear some wall space in your mancave because the Star Wars Dart Board is ready to be hung up and played. The front of this dartboard features the “Last Daughter of Alderaan” lithograph from comic book artist Adam Hughes with a colorful image of Slave Leia. Inside the cabinet is a quality Bristol target board and side chalkdboards for scoring:
If you can draw your eye away from Princess Leia for a second, take note of the darts above, you get three Rebel darts and three Imperial darts. When closed the dartboard measures 26″ x 20″ x 3.5″. Bulls eye.
