The sad thing is that I can see a bunch of people buying that.

I can't wait to see some old ass person or kid start pushing down a hill and just wreck themselves.

It's pretty fucking lame because surfers don't use paddles, lol, that's just a lacrosse stick with a tennis ball at the end. When surfers paddle they lie down on their boards and use their arms. I'm trying to think of what this shit actually resembles, except some douche bag pushing a skateboard with a lacrosse stick.

if we are lucky there will be amazing pole vault type slams caught on film for our pleasure.

edit: and this is so much worse than mongo. unless you are disabled and skaddleboarding is your only option for shredding.

I don't live in so-cal, so I don't think I'll ever see one of these in person. But if I do, I will make a conscious effort to knock them off their board.

I expect to see Reynolds pushing up to Hollywood high 16 with one very soon

that seriously seems like a product-advertisement that was made by the creators of southpark. ridiculous.

"if you are grooving on our product..."

sixpackoftablets · « **Reply #19 on:** April 06, 2011, 05:44:20 AM »

it's a knock-off of sweepers/janitors/SUPs in the surf world. sweepers are many levels lower on the totem pole compared to longboarders.

also, kickstarter sucks

This will never catch on. First of all your legs are so much stronger than your arms and one regular push will make you go 10 times faster than paddling. They only have 26 days to reach 15 grand and only have a little over $120. I don't think its going to happen.

grimcity · « **Reply #25 on:** April 06, 2011, 08:52:05 AM »

Yeah but this will make your arms more powerful!

Dude, Puleo has the best paddle. I could just watch him skate paddle all day.
