If you need someone who is trained in first aid to scrape you off the pavement when you get your skateboard, give me a call.

And being close to buck hills size is huge? It is better then nothing but buck hill still sucks and I volunteer there. Why couldnt god have blessed minnesota with mountains damit!

Re: should I buy this?

That sounds like a good deal to me, no all you have to do is figure out a way to prevent people from stealing it while you are in class.

ok, so its small, but compared to things like powder ridge and hyland ski snowboard area its big. I dont go there much anymore since I usually make 2 trips out west if I can afford it... i at least go every christmas/new years with my family out to keystone/a-basin/vail and thats a bit better

but I'd say get a gas powered stand up scooter, throw a 50cc dirtbike engine on it, and make it so you can hand shift and go 40-50!!! haha

Re: should I buy this?

We used to tow each other across Lake Minnetonka on snowboards behind my Cherokee all the time. Until my buddy split his melon trying to take a big jump out there. It's about the only way you can ride for more than a minute without having to get on a chairlift. I still like this powered skateboard though.
