Whats the deal?

i’ve been checking out this board, freebord and it seems pretty cool, but I was wondering if anyone owns one. I kind of want to find out if it’s legit or not

this is the clip that I watched:

Did he say speeds up to 50MPH. What if you meet a car doing 50MPH. 100MPH impact speed!!!!!!! and no protective clothing.

I still want one

I'm 5'6" and 14.5 St and 47 years old but I would love to try it. I'd be wearing knee pads, elbow pads, skid lid and double gusset shred's!!!!!!!!!!! It would have to be on a private road that is closed to traffic though.
I noticed that the commentator said, "Kids could see any sloping pavement or highway as a snow board run." Can you imagine what will happen when these things reach the Nanny State that is the British Isles???? I can't wait.

Maybe I should take my motorbike gear off the market. Does that look like a thrill or what?!

Walking back up the hill might be a pain...
