seems like people aren't able to flow as easily/go as big on them... looks like they could bring a whole new meaning to summertime fun, though....

Now that is pretty cool. Considering those are skis on WHEELS he looked pretty smooth; that man is a visionary.

I'd never do it though; I bail too much and that would really hurt.

I've been thinking of trying to build a pair of streetskis/rollerskis for ages. Never gotten round to it though.

I dont think the grinding would be a problem, the landing however might be the problem

Anyone remember the video of the guy a few years ago who made some homemade roller skis and was doing penciled 3s and shit in a mtb park? I think it was on youtube but can't find it.

so, so sick. i can only imagine how fun it would be to ski street with those things, popping over gaps and grinding stuff (if you can grind with them)

Yeah my dad had a pair for xc training, but these look like they have nondirectional ball wheels, which are way better for what we want to do with them.
