Default Off season boarding

Hello everyone,

I while ago I read a post about a skate board that was as close as
possible to the snowboard feeling for boarding the pavement during the
summer. Could someone kindly tell me the name of that board again and
maybe a url?

Thx,
Mike

It might well be the freebord you're thinking of. Having tried one, I've got
to say, it's not that similar, but then, I can't skate. Maybe if you can
already skate, it's better.

That's strange. I posted the same thing earlier today but from a different
computer and I didn't see your post. Now I see it just before mine on the
very same topic. I found two different boards that I think are what you are
looking for but I don't know which is better. Here's the links:
www.freebord.com
www.flowboard.com
