Fascinating.

Maybe it's a game changer because it will encourage greenskeepers to keep their turf fast & firm!

Ambulance chasers must be salivating over this opportunity.  The lawyer who writes the liability waiver will need some serious malpractice insurance.  Whoever funds this thing is a real angel investor, figuratively at least.  I'd pay money just to watch.

It looks like the stereotype pot users that are supposedly prevalent in skateboarding scene, and x-game types and surfing scene have taken the whole legalized pot everywhere and into the golf scene.  You'd have to be stoned to think this is viable and a great idea....  

[Jim Nugent]

No idea if it succeeds.  But sure looks fun to me.  

[David Harshbarger]

Cool idea.  If my kids would be allowed to use it, I'd sign them up immediately, as long as they don't wear their helmets backwards of course.

Would love to ride that baby down the approach at St. George's NY's 13th.

There is another liability issue, the price tag -  $3,495.00

Pretty funny coming from the stoner capital of the United States.  

[Daryl David]

Can't wait to try this thing at Stone Eagle.   

[Jordan Caron]

Not sure if they will stay around but it could introduce more youth to the game. However, the parents of skateboards have it great. No equipment and membership fees!

[Matt MacIver]

Sign me up today!

I grew up skateboarding (and still do when golf doesn't get in the way) and the last thing I want to do while playing golf is to ride something similar to a skateboard.
