It’s conceivable that these trucks might work well enough for a beginner. The technology dates back to the 50’s here, and believe it or not, I think there are some dirtboard, excuse me, mountainboarding trucks out there right now that are based on the same design. Still, call me cynical, but have to believe the […]
Even at 120 FPS, I’m still not sure what happened here, but Bob Burnquist is not bailing. Check it out after the jump. – Thanks to Neal Hendrix for the tip, via Facebook.
