Hey NS,
Anybody heard of these?

http://www.amazon.com/Simtec-Fun-Slides-Carpet-Skates/dp/B000MN8DT0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1413310343&sr=8-1&keywords=fun+slides

I have a pair, and they slide on...
- PVC
- Metal
- Wood
- Cement
- Carpet
- Literally everything

They are basically just pieces of plastic that can be strapped to feet/shoes. Just wondering if anyone else has tried these and experienced the ability to slide anything and everything.

My friend had em back in middle school. We used to do stupid shit like riding down strairs on them or setting up mini parks on the carpet. Good times for sure

Sort of, if you use just 2x8 pieces of wood that have been waxed, it works extremely well, and its super fun, pretzels are relatively easy even without the edge control aspect, never tried it in a place like that though, so it could be totally different.

I need these in my life! Any ideas about making something like this yourself, since I'm not paying shipping to Finland for these bad boys.

Really want to get these and make an indoor park setup. Worth it? What should I make a rail/ box with?
