Just a guess but I'd say yes, yes they are.

I've always thought those things were interesting, but incredibly overpriced for what they are.

lmao, i always thought there were wheels on the bottom and then it was some certain motion that pushes you forward, but i guess not. so stupid (me and that stick)

I've got one leaning against my wall. Not the bamboo--the other overpriced version. My cousin bought it, used it a few times, decided it was absurd, and basically abandoned it here. I picked it up once and was like, "wow, skating with a really long, heavy stick in your hands is dumb."

That said, there was a guy with one at the Central Park Race in June and he was doing sick #### with it. Flying on the flats (I was envious) and then dragging it behind him and kinda pivoting off it while he carved. He was smiling the whole time and probably not thinking about how much he'd spent.

If your into SUP then its a really good way to train while your not actually in the water.

BUT, yeah, I think I`d be using a broom stick with an old wheel stuck to the bottom of it.
