title says it, do u guys think its possible to skimmboard on the ski slopes?
would be sick to hit some boxes with the skimboard.
guess its kinda hard to stop and the skimmboard could go down the hill like a ski without brakes.
u guys thin its a good idea?

it could be fun but your gonna have no control, there are no edges on a skim board. it would probably be super hard to ollie also.

true ya, just had the thought as i saw the tc episode where they hopped on plastic sleds with their skis on.
it would compare to going sledding or down a powda hill in a kayak.
i guess it would be quite an experience though.

ok it might be because im high atm, but im getting these strange ideas.
could you surf in powder, like with a real surfboard? you wouldnt need sharp edges and if it gets too fast you can just jump into the pow.
would be sick to see a nice edit of that from somebody that can surf.
ya checked out them snowskates, but dont wanna spend dough on that. got my board lying around in my room so ill try that some day.
cheers guys and thx for the input

i tried skimboarding when it snowed at a hill next to my high school's football field. slid down, hit the curb, and did a faceplant into the parking lot. shit hurt

to bad so many people on ns these days dont even ski or snowboard. Wouldn't it be sick to hit a box on a surfboard and then pull an uber trick?

"Skimmboarding on the slopes" Why would you post a thread on it. It's a retarded idea. Something dumb to do if your fucked up.
If you want to do it, go do it. No need for a useless thread on it
