Its kind of like snowboarding on pavement. imagine a longboard with extra wheels in the middle of the trucks that are closer to the pavement so you can carve and go sideways to stop. I just bought one and i want to get some input. they are pretty sick though. go to freebord.com and check out the videos

First Snowboard?
It does look pretty good however I don't think it'll be much fun unless you live in San Francisco or some place that has some nice crazy long hills. Also I get the feeling that the wheels won't last very long as any serious "edging" will probably create lots of flat spots on the middle wheels.
Still really cool though. Might be fun in the summer...or on the east coast where there is no snow.
Any Tahoe resorts open in November?
I thought about getting one so I demoed one, but there's no real good place to use it around here. It's only really good if you have a nice downhill run.
