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.
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.

And in the process you could destroy your shoes. Nice!
You know that only makes it more awesome.

Aww...here I was hoping it was something seriously hardcore...like PK. Well, PK isn't a sport per se...but its awesome.
Yeah, I think I prefer Parkour to this. :)

Parkour is pretty sexy, but I think this wins.
That's a lie, and you know it.

You look like a huge fag parkouring unless you're really good at it.

What? That isn't why skaters wear such rediculously large shoes?
Wheeee!

No, not at all. There are these 2 guys in my grade who go around climbing fences, jumping over picnic tables and trying to do hand stands all lunch period every day, we all just laugh at them. I don't judge anyone attempting to do any tricks in any extreme sport besides maybe those scooter kids because I know I was once one of those kids. Unless you're urban ninja or the Russian street climber, parkouring is laame.

Um ok let me give you a scenario, you're on a skateboard going down a nice steep perfectly paved hill, you start to pick up speed and before you know it, you're going 50mph. You reach a busy intersection with heavy traffic. Putting your foot on the ground = a face plant, blood, intense pain, road rash, hospital, ect. With a freeboard, all you have to do is turn sideways and stop in a matter of seconds.

Only if you are an idiot. Imagine running down a hill. You don't just stop moving your feet, you have to keep yourself back so you don't do as you described. It's the same concept, except you only have one foot to do it with.

Humanity.faith--;

I realise that what you are saying works up to a certain speed. Once you start to go too fast your legs won't be able to keep up.
Here I have found perfect examples:

Notice how all of them attempt to run to a stop but fail.

Neither of them attempted to stop, they lost control. And good luck getting a skateboard to go 50mph.

Wouldn't that severely damage the side of your "bord," then? I mean it's concrete we're talking about here, not snow...

I totally want to check out this XTREME SPORT, it TOTALLY looks like it KICKS ass. I mean, SERIOUSLY! This is just as cool as this XTREME website.



Anyway. This is lame, just like every "extreme" sport. Get the hell over it -- nothing is "extreme," its just to what degree can you get hurt.

Hand stands != parkour. This defines parkour quite well. If they call themselves traceurs because the jump over picnic tables and climb fences, I'm going to have to say that's wrong. Even if they aren't phail at that, they're still missing three of the five aspects.

The verb is tracing (or just doing), by the way.

There's these 2 kids at my school who go around trying to ollie, and jump down 2 sets of stairs on bear up skateboards all lunch period every day, we all just laugh at them. Unless you're Tony Hawk or Chad Muska skateboarding is laame.

There was something similar to this. If anyone is familiar with aggressive skating, it's inline skating but grinding and not gay. Someone made it into something for snow and tried grinding it.
