its a lot of fun and is exactly like snowboarding except for the fact you cant go fast enough and starting off if you dont have a good push or a steep hill is pretty hard. you live on a huge hill and love carving back and forth on a snowboard then get this. if you wana go really fast and still have it feel like a snowboard then get a snowboard

Not Bad, Friday, 02 February 2007

Written by guest - View all my reviews - #1 Reviewer

The freebord really does come close to simulating snowboarding; both the good and the bad. It's much easier than anything else to throw into a nice slide, which is great for controlling speed. However, as with a snowboard, it can really only be ridden downhill. Because of the small center wheels, it has very little coast, and it's almost impossible to kick - it just wants to slide out sideways. Also, the only way to turn tightly is to slide it, because the trucks cannot carve very hard. If you want a longboard, keep away. If you want a snowboard simulator, this is the board for you.
