its one step above sledding, the only ones that you can realy do anything cool on unless its your back yard are the gnu and lib ones.....


www.lib-tech.com
www.gnu.com

I rode with the reverse camber it was sorta fun, but that sport is nowhere near as cool as any other skate.... but you will be pro in a day soo thats a plus...

nah the premiers you can anything on but you cant take them on the hill, all quote unquote pros here all hit stuff in the regular board park....a 43 is a good size or around that anything smaller is hard to ride and anything bigger is hard to turn, its really just not as fun as snowboarding, maybe someday though....

jordan, that's pretty sweet. but isn't the whole point of snowskating to do flip tricks not just do the same thing you can on a snowboard? i saw one flip trick in that video and one shuv. everything else could be done on a snowboard

I have both a bi-level and a single and I'll say that bi-levels on the mountains and the most intense thing ever. They're legit.




If you get a bi go GNU and if you get a single go Ambition.

Come on Jordan, get mad and post some vid

I am by no means a pro snowskater and I can perform dozens of things on a snowskate that can not be done on a snowboard
