The Freebord is quite possibly the closest simulator to the feel of snowboarding as it wil
l ever get. If you want to feel like you are snowboarding on pavement, the design of the Freebord makes it a great board for snowboarders wanting to recreate the feel of snowboarding in the off season.
The Freebord has 6 wheels. 2 on the inside and 4 on the outside. The outside wheels act like the edge of a snowboard and let you control your speed. To slow down on the Freebord you carve just like you would on a snowboard. The outside wheels will help you turn and slow you down.
Stopping is just the same on a Freebord as on a snowboard. The outside wheels will act like the edge of a snowboard and slow you down to a stop just the same.
The center wheels on the Freebord allow you to drift sideways like on a snowboard down a hill. You can freely turn the board around and switch stances while bombing down a hill. The center wheels on the Freebord give you the same sliding feel that a snowboard does on snow.
