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.

Until the tricks step up way beyond skateboards, they will always be the similar to the "razor" in appearance.

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.
