Last June I moved to Lake Tahoe California. Once the snow started falling Danny Sheehan hooked me up with a skate to try out. To my surprise they work amazingly good. I had only rode single decks and crappy burton / GNU double decks. They performed pretty bad. I couldn't even ollie with those things and they were sketchy to ride at the resorts to say the least. After the first time I saw the Ralston decks I knew instantly this was the real deal. The sub decks are made of super flexible bamboo and they also feature rocker trucks with these things called flex ramps.
The control you have while riding is pretty amazing. I can out run snowboarders on the hill all day long. They also ollie and kickflip like a dream. Its the closest skateboard like pop of any snowskate I've tried. I think Danny has a winning combination here. It's so fun to go to the local hill and be able to ollie and kickflip snowboard jumps as well as do ollie on park rails. Over all, if you are in the market for a double deck Ralston is hands down the best product I have ever tried.
