Freebord is just plain free-kin' cool.

Go to this site, look at this video (high|low) and check out the online store.

If you are or have been a skater, and if you're a snowboarder, your jaw will drop. Wow. That's cool.

"If you're going 50 miles an hour, you're not scared, because you have the confidence, you know you can slow down for a car, or a stop sign, in like two seconds."

Switch, float, brake, turn. On pavement.

Sweet. Watch the video. You'll see.

"Every kid walks around his neighborhood and looks at looks at every street in the neighborhood, and now its a snowboard run."

Now I really want to play with one of these things. Not like I'd be able to stay up on it or anything, but I'm just as big on cracking my head open on the pavement as your average 17-year-old. Bring it on!
