Default Batteleon 3D shaped base technology - opinions??

It's not really a question of "can they be ridden?", more "are they
better than more conventional designs?". There's no evidence of this
latter. The pseudo-technical information on the site doesn't explain
why the board might be good.

I guess I'm skeptical about this in the same way I'm skeptical about
those who "detune" their edges. I can't see why anyone would buy a
board of a particular running-length only to throw away part of that
length by blunting [and now raising] the edges.

As the site does suggest, you'll need a friendly Wintersteiger
operator if you're going to really try one of these.

I'm not sure they're entirely serious.
