i think the US is 1 year BEHIND in trends. look to europe or asia for newer trends

but other than that it looks pretty sweet. wipeouts would have lick balls though. ouch.
can't wait to go riding next weekend in austria...

I was managing a shop in 1997-1999 and the guys came in and did a demo and all that. Can't say it really took off or anything.

I've never seen anything like that before. That looks really fun.
Probably only take me about 10 minutes to get run over.

that looks really fun. suddenly i'm tempted to buy one, i'm so sick of park skating. what sucks with bombing hills though is the way back up.

i wonder if i can do this on the busy street of manhattan.

We never get enough snow to board so i think it would do well in the uk .

isnt that the point? here in the UK we have never had enough to board,ski, etc. unless you head to scottland for the weakest amount.
looks pretty interesting, fucking fast for tarmac, hit a stone, fun fun.
what about that board with a sort of arc with about 10 wheels on each truck? allows you to pivot, i think, er maybe...

Dude, that is kick ass, that won't be a fad, that'll last.

it does look fun, would be cool doing huge drifts on it aye
looks like it solves the speed wobble's problem when bombing hills 2

Freeboards are mental on the sideways, almost identical to sno. Nothing better than bombing the biggest hill in your city then getting the 50c bus back to the top

it's been around for a while and i don't think it's going to catch on, except with jockboarders.
throw on a pair of soft 68 mms and there's no need for it.
bombing hills on those looks idiotic...no challenge
- blackspade0
looks like a blast to me!
ive been skating and snowboarding for 15 years
- cvirus0
again...dumb...just skate or ride...no need for that nonsense.
