I picked one of these up about a month ago and the learning curve took me a little whiel to get. Anyway Dimension Streetboards just uploaded their trailor for their new video and the slams remind me of snowboards so i though I would pass it along. Entertaining if anything...

That's a pretty cool invention. Figuring out how to make a skateboard peddle with your feet strapped in. Although numbfoot's right all that stuff is already being done. This is just kinda like the Taco Bell Chalupa version. _________________ You have just entered the twilight zone. |

Until the tricks step up way beyond skateboards, they will always be the similar to the "razor" in appearance. _________________ Hold up....Wait a minute.... Let me put some pimpin in it! mmmmph |

i wouldnt like that cause you couldnt catch yourself when you fall. you would just go straight to the pavement |

One of those might be fun in a skatepark. Can you make one go while bound in? I mean on a level surface. _________________

They are fun everywhere - still prefer wakeboarding but this is becoming a quick second for sure.
I've been searching forever for any type of how to video and can't find one. the best i have i have found that helped me the most is on the www.dimensionboards.com gallery page. The top most left video the beggining shows you how you create movement.
I struggled with it for almost a day before i figure it out. My board came with a how to page but a video would have helped way more... |

How much does one cost? Are the bindings just straps, like on a mountainboard? I had a mountainboard briefly, and decided (after coming out of the straps while ollying) that I was going to break something if I kept it much longer. _________________

I picked mine up on sale with bindings for 135.00. You will not come out of the straps from my what i know although I may be wrong. if you really want to know you can post a question on the streetboarding forum. Athough from the crashs in the left for dead teaser i would hihgly doubt that you would ever come out. |
