I can see how it can be useful in the park - but snowblading down the pistes is just irritating. The number of people I've heard complaining about how hard it is snowblading in slush, its like, well where the hell are your skis then????
You don't see snowboarders on the mountain on skateboard decks! (well actually my friends tried that once....)
woah woah woah...am i on ns? why isnt this guy having a new asshole torn for him?
just kidding. i think i would rather ski. i find snowblades are good for people who go out like twice a year.
i went snowbladein one day this season, it was fun for the first while, only becasue you could spin super fast, and we where skiing on every grass patch there was.
i was eating lunch with some people who i just met, and we got on the topic of skiing and snowboarding. this one kid asks me if ive ever tried "those skiblade things". i looked at him, stopped talking, and got up and walked away.
bahahahahaha n00b fight on a snowblading thread...epic
antway, it's called skiboarding, and it's borderline fun for like, a day
if you don't mind falling and cracking your spine while kicking yourself in the back of the head quite often, you'll like it
they're really fun on piste, although a bit sketchy
you can carve sooooo nicely, but that's kinda where it ends
try it at least once if you haven't
I snowblade a couple times a season just to dick around. cuz i work at a ski area they have a couple pairs, so couple days a year i'll put em on for a couple hours....i mean they're fun to mess around on for a couple hours when you're bored...but not good for much else.
