My new board!

My new board I got for my birthday that my dad bought from sodfarmkiter is awesome. It is a Ground Industries. It is around 4ft long and 10 in wide. It has these really cool bern trucks with square bushings in them. The board also came with street wheels. The tires are 8" diameter and the street wheels are about 5".
I will put in pictures this afternoon.

nice..............just remember to lean back. Its better to land on your backside than being snatched and face planted............trust me! I thought your dad said it was a GI board? My mistake, blame that one on age, again.....................

I made some fatherly corrections to his post. It is indeed a G.I. board. He wanted to keep it in his room last night. He REALLY likes the board. He couldn't stop riding it back and forth in the driveway last night with the street wheels on it.

He's excited, I can understand that! With a bit of luck (and a harness) he can hook into the 8m P3 on the 30th.................... And you have no excuses either dad!

Poor Dad,

He just fell in love with Blades and now he's about to be converted to Flysurfer . One Demo flight and it's done .:wink2:

Ya should have seen Wexler flying my Montana 3 9.5 meter last Friday. He was learning how to push it around in light winds, which is difficult (but at least safe, to an extent). The funny part was my Large Mystic Warrior harness riding up to his armpits just about.

He will do fine on that board.

He was really carving it up on the street yesterday. I need to take some pics of him with all his skin intact!:smilegrin: It looks like a cartoon with Wexler riding a 4' board with those 5" street wheels sticking out the side.
