For some reason I thought Freebords were pretty slow... I think it was the top comment on one of these videos posted a while ago. That definitely didn't look slow to me :)
trust me they dont - they barely even leave a thane mark.... the fact thatthe force that is applied to it is only there half the time as it would be on a longboard helps durability, also the wheels dont lock up like on a longbaord they are always spinning so they dont flatspot as easily
board* and yes it does .... do you even own a freebord? obviously you dont cos you would know that the wear on the wheels is much less than you would think .... please dont tell me, who has ridden through 6 sets of da blues, how my board works
