Skateboards were meant to be used on hard ground and skis on snow. That was until Railz decided to change the rules. They took off the wheels of the skate board and equipped it with ski's instead. This created the 'SnowSkate' that actually skates on snow slopes. The suspension on this baby can be adjusted for getting the exact feel. Railz promises to make it extremely easy for the user with waterproof gripping for the perfect traction. You dont even need to buy the full thing, just get the 'upgrade kit' and mount the skis on your own ol' board.
The skis are extremely tough and durable and will absorb all damage meted out to them. A pity, the same cant be said for your bones once you have convinced yourself to have a go at it.
The conversion or upgrade kit costs USD $60 while the Snowskates themselves are available in options of 32" ($90) and 46" ($150).
Get them from Flowlab before the snow melts.
