Freebord Skateboard for Snowboarders Who Aren’t Ready to Let Go
Rise from your depression snowboarders who are already holed in the basement waiting for summer’s long stay. The Freebord is the latest skateboard that seeks to mimic carving a turn on snow and sitting at the base of a headwall with all your friends. The Freebord’s wide outside wheels are supposed to be like snowboard edges while the small middle wheel lends the feel of your base. Small bindings keep you feet glued to the board during pavement falls that are so much less forgiving than the snow, and the board stops by skidding it sideways like a snowboard. The rig will set you back about $300, but expect to pay a lot in gas for friends driving up hills. How else would you get up them—walk?
