imshirazy, yes, twice (two very different situations).
First time tried to use it like a snowboard going down a hill. Didnt work. Didnt slide very well and turning was impossible because the rails are convex vs. concave.
Second time, wakeboarded during a snowstorm and slid a grassy bank covered in snow. Worked fine, slid well but I wasnt turning at all.
Verdict-Itll slide alright (not as good as a snowboard) but youll have a very hard time turning.
I tried a roam with snowboard bindings at ten hill I work at.
It did not work for me. _________________ TRACTOR WAKESKATES

it actually turned out alright for me
impossible to turn in the snow though, i would always end up just riding sideways... _________________ 2008 LF witness board
