previous comments,  Friday, 02 February 2007 Kyle: i might buy this board, but i saw the swivel wheel in the video and am wondering if that comes with the board and what its actually called

Mattias: Have anybody tried using the freeboard as a normal longboard with the center wheel off the ground? How does it handle at high speed?

dan: hey, i just got one today and have been workin on the riding a lot. i thought that because ive been snowboarding for 6 years it would be easy to pick up but yea, its pretty crazy at first but you get the hang of it more and more with every try. i just got a question, how do i put the skyhooks on?

oc1rob: I got an Alpha 100 in Austria for $130 bargain!Well worth the steep learning curve, and speed of board is your friend in learning to control the freeboard - try one if you can

TJ: Nothing to say but awesome...buy one

cainpole: Awesome snowboard simulator and loads of fun. You will meet the pavement with this board more than on a regular longboard, so at least wear some gloves or wrist guards.Freebord just lowered their prices to under $200, so check them out. It was so worth the price when they were $230.

greg: these things are sick. its so much fun to ride and you feel really safe on it. my friend was riding beside me in a car, and he said that i was doing 30 mph, and i wasn't the least bit scared. it took me like an hour to get used to. believe me, that hour sucked, but once you get the feel for it it's the best snowboard simulation out there. suck it up and go buy one noe, you won't regret it.

Ben Bobster: this board is all around fun a little hard to pick up at first but once you get it it is really fun.

Brian: this is definantly the best board out there. skyhooks are a must.

Griffins: a really nice board. it takes some getting used too, but once you do, it's great. worth the investment. you get a little less leverage without bindings than you would on a snowboard, but it comes with small skyhooks that make up the difference.

Sam: Sweet board, is a lil costly but still kicks butt. Since it's a pretty new board, you have to invent some tricks on your own after you master they other ones. And putting sky hooks on one are a good idea if you like air. I put mountain board straps on mine, great for support, but hard to bail with.

Dustin: Kinda weird at first but once you get the hang of it it rides just like a snowboard.

Sean: While this board is difficult to handle at first it is a great way to get out the anxiety of waiting for snow. It has definately helped me out. Fun to ride and even more fun to watch your friends ride.

reon: This is a great offseason snowboard training tool, one of the best investments i have ever made. even if you dont have any hills in your town, but have a parking garage, get one...parking garages are my fav place to ride because u can take up the elevator just like a lift while snowboarding. It totally taught me how to ride switch. i can now ride switch flawlessly on a snowboard. if u snowboard and cant wait until next winter GET ONE! www.freebord.com-ryan
