    Default rolls rolls

    I just dont get it.
    Whats with all the carbon fibre wheel arches. Doesnt that stop you from carving over too far. It just kinda looks like a money dressed up Landyachtz rip off to me. Larger wheels = faster to speed, yea i get. But I just dunno, looks odd to me.

    Give me a Landyachtz DH.

    Be excellent to everyone

    It is very aerodynamic and expensive.

    Default not froot boot

    I tried out the Rolls Rolls. The wheels are about 3.5" in diameter (I didn't measure them - just make a big circle with your thumbs and middle fingers, and that's about the size ) - larger than any rollerblade wheels I know of (but then, what do I know?...)

    I put a review along with the Rolls Rolls review Marcus did -
    http://www.silverfish.cc/articles/rollsrolls.php

    It was a pretty fun ride. I had a hard time getting used to stepping over the humps, but it's a stable, easy ride once going. The neighborhood kids, and my older childrens' friends, couldn't get enough of it.

    I thought that was you - the first address Peter gave me to send mine to was Sparks, but had to re-route to a California address...

    Sure it's a cool board... but worth the price? those german longboards sure are expensive. ooh! ouch! it stings to think of how light my wallet would be after buying these bavarian products. 8)

    The rolls rolls is awesome. Its definantly the best board i've ever ridden. Its nice cause with the big wheels, u can go over stuff that normal boards cant. I t also gives it a really smooth ride. I'm planning on buying the testboard i have now cause new, there expensive as hell.
