    Arrow Accidental Skiboard Man

    For years I’ve wanted to try dicking around on some skiboards. I finally decided to bid on some on eBay with the idea that I may actually win a pair for shits and giggles. Well, I accidentally won 4 pairs. I shall now we known as Accidental Skiboard Man. Oops.

    Seriously? That sounds rad... and sketchy. I’m down with some groomer days. I’ve mostly been excited to do some park shiz on the Lines. But, I’ll probably end up selling at least 2 of these.

    It sounds absurd but those sollys really are fun on green/blue stuff when it hasn't snowed lately. They're also fairly amusing in bumps since they are so short that they can pop over the crests and tuck right into the troughs. Plus nobody looked at me funny when I was way in the backseat or doing my classic arm flailing technique cuz the expectation is that I was Texan and that's just how they roll.

    Cletus: Duly noted.

    If you want to sell and and ship to CO, let me know. I need a pair so I can foot launch my paraglider at Copper and stuff them in my harness.

    yep. theses things were first used by ski teams to help kids find their center of balance on skis and break the habit of leaning to far forward or back. the salomons will rail gs turns at mach speed on hard pack.

    ^ the second vid was awesome, and completely necessary to wash the song from the first video from my head.

    Stick to the Line Weapons, the salomons and K2s are foam core garbage and don’t have the swappable bindings. Those of us still using them regularly have long thrown those in the trash. Also if you want to see where boards have gone check out rvl8skiboards.com and skiboardsonline.com

    I’ve seen the Rvl8 skiboards! They look way fat and gnarly. Maybe if I keep at it, I’ll get me a pair.

    I’m basically already that second dude, but on normal skis. Can’t wait to see how these skiboards get me shredding and spinning and acting a fool. I’m really just about that fun. Maybe some whiskey and IPA’s, too.
