Have you got it yet Chris, or picking it up soon? I got the Original "Endless Progression" model. It does what it says in the blurb - you can sling it around as well as ride it trad style.

Notice he's riding with the board back to front, I was watching one of the lads do that the other week. Do longboarders do this regularly? emoticon

Only when bored. Or pissed. Or disoriented. Or when someone points a camera at you and you foolishly think you can walk the board round through 360 degrees. Oh yeah, and sometimes when you're paddling out and don't quite make it over a biggie -- pretending that you were trying to ride it backwards is much cooler than screaming for the coastguard to come rescue you.

Surely he cant be riding backwards as the fin (at the front) is pointing in the right direction....

If you put a fin so the point faces the other way... it naturally tries to turn around - thats how you pull a 360! Just do a 180 and keep balanced and the fins will do the rest!

I recon the piccy above is some weird design with an extra fin up front.... in fact, it looks a bit like a hydrofoil?

If you go to the site and look at the designs on the boards, you will see that he is riding the board back to front. emoticon
