New York Guarded By Superheroes

As the Sun sets in New York City, a group of real life superheroes takes to the streets. These costumed crime fighters go by names of Dark Guardian, Spyder, Spector, and Snipe.  They patrol the gritty streets with hybrid skateboard / shields, in search of danger.

When they are out at night searching the subways and scaling walls, looking for trouble, the superheroes protect themselves with non-traditional body armor made from plastic and metal. 

The group is called New York Initiative and they take their commitment to doing good very seriously.
