Wait for some of the NorCal guys to see this. I know a few guys were trying these out at the last convergence and Originals ride demo day thing earlier this summer.

i've never ridden one either but it looks like it would only mess you up if anything. seems like it would be weird if your back foot doesn't land perfectly on the kicktail. Confused

I've seen videos of Rich killing it on those boards.

I would like to ride one, for science.
