Hey guys so I'm really obsessed with snowboarding come winter time and I've always wanted a snowboard replacement for when theres well... no snow. Check out this new sport called freebording. Im going to start this summer. The video pretty much explains what goes on.

None.
Though I love snowboarding, there are simply no streets over here that are suitable for such rides (all flat).
None.
aka freebored.
this is a stupid idea, mainly due to my immense hate of snowboarders, and the fact that the guy can't spell board.

I don't know what you have against snowboarders but being able to ride on the sreets like a snowboard is a brilliant idea, you need no lift ticket, the slopes aren't crowded and all you need is a asphalt hill. Hating snowboarding doesn't make this a dumb idea.
Board is intentionally mispelled as a marketing ruse.
None.
Damn I love snowboarding...
Now I really want one of those things...
None.
Aww...here I was hoping it was something seriously hardcore...like
PK. Well, PK isn't a sport per se...but its awesome.
Looks sucky.
Just get a skateboard.
Why has jetpacking not become an extreme sport yet?
None.
'cause they're too expensive?
?????

You're an idiot for hating snowboarders. I don't know what your story is, maybe you've had some bad run ins with them but it's just like saying I hate black people because one time one of them stole my wallet.

1. It is completely different from a skateboard, they even say you have a bigger learning curve learning how to freebord if you're a skateboarder vs. if you're a snowboarder. You can't get that sort of flow on a skateboard and what I like the most about freebords is that you can stop on a dime unlike skateboards where if you go downhill it's GG.
2. Jet packs don't exist outside of movies.
None.

Yeah, I was hoping it would be someone else on here trying out parkour...
I'm a traceur. What do I win?
None.
Basically, they're longboards...
Also, I am too a traceur.

NO, basically they AREN'T longboards.

Face it man, your argument is like saying Rollerskis are not just long Rollerblades.
The design is still the same, four wheels and a board. NEW WITH STRAPS!

Omg! I just put my foot on the ground, and the increase in friction has produced enough force in the opposite direction to cause me to lose velocity! HolyshitIstopped!
... Or you could jump off and chase it. That sounds more entertaining.

Except these seem to have six wheels, two that rotate freely for the 'sliding'. I actually kind of like it, since I can hardly ever go snowboarding...
None.
Aww, I thought the thread would be about some crazy extreme sport [like ironing]
Oh well.
None.
