Just a small rant here
I was talking to my friend.. a fellow skibaorder, and he has been skiboarding longer than i have but i agree completely with what he was saying..
Skiboarding in my opinion is any pair of boards under 100 cm.
Yes i ride revolts which are breaking my idea by a little bit, and i think even the 110's are still alright, but the thing that gets me is the 120+ "skiboards"
I dont see boards longer than 110cm as skiboards.
I really think that if the founders of the sport looked at us now they would agree that. In the X-games the athletes would try to get as close to 100 cm as possible with the 98, and 99 cm boards. When i picture skiboarding i think about tooling around in the park and ripping through trees, not making huge carves down groomers with baby twin tips at 130cm while using poles..
When i see that i just think.. why? why not skis?
I know people say oh but im older, and well i need more float in the pow, and ohh i like to hike i need extra length.. Well then i dont see why you people dont ride skis. Not trying to hate, but i dont like hearing about 130cm skiboards.
So i guess im done..
Let the hate begin
