What do YOU want to see in a snowskate?

[Matt]

I think sidewalls are a good investment. You should make it so the grip goes into the sidewall, so the grip can't peel up off of the sides. Oh and ambitions can chip if they land on the ground the right way its happened to me before (not on one of the newer ones it was on my old black one from 08').

what is sidewall?

what is sidewall?

It's a ''wall'' on the sides of the board to protect the wood, just like on snowboards. It's usually made out of the same thing as the base.

I personally don't see any advantages.. Sidewalls are used to protect the core of the skate, but with a properly constructed core snowskates do not need sidwalls as they do not break, delam, snap etc. It would only complexify the construction of the boards, up the price, and add weight. The boards do not break, they don't need any extra protection.

Instead make a super low bideck where the top deck has a big nose and tail and a wide subdeck with no metal edges and some grooves, it should almost be as wide as the top deck and then some rocker-like trucks. I would like to ride one of those. Its my secret fantasy uber idea. The sub deck should be super flexy and a little banana-ish so when you ride on fucked up terrain its super smooth and the sub just squeezes into the ground and you get super traction yadadamean bideck single deck hybrid shit. If you steal this idea i will like you. XOXO

I would like to see a logo on the bottom, like last years ambitions. I was disappointed that the team series this year didn't have the ambition logo on the bottom.

I would like so see a perfect board. lol

To me a perfect board would have the base of an ambition the noes and tail of an icon, and finally the incredible concave and shape of a premier.

Improvements to this mystical board would be very few, the only thing i can think of would be to have a thin piece of very light and strong metal as the base. I think it would slide very well control and not get damage that easily. But unfortunatly even a light weight sheet metal would add some weight but to compensate maybe remove a few plys since the metal is strong enough.

I know this metal base concept sounds very out there, and would give a great deal of weight. But i would love to see a proto type that has a very light weight yet strong metal material.

If such a material is found i think the only problem is that snowskate companies would go out of business due to the fact that the board would practically never wear out lol!

There's so much wrong with this..

lmao you are just mad that I pointed out how bad of an extreme grip lay out you had AND it was confermed by anouther memeber of this forum.

Any way the metal base is an idea or concept that is being put out there for insperation an testing. Do you know how many strange ideas are put into proto type / consept cars. I could not tell you the number but it was a shit load and with out some of them we would not have some of the awsome vehicals that we have today.
This concept is nearher wrong nor right, simply an idea being stated.
