www.oldsnowboards.com Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 (edited) For the golfers out there? :) Interesting twist on a mountain board? Looks like fun to zoom around the golf course. I wonder how well the other golfers are going to accept the concept? <iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/765640644/surf-the-earth-with-the-golfboard/widget/video.html" frameborder="0"> </iframe> Edited September 21, 2013 by www.oldsnowboards.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piusthedrcarve Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 I just came back from a round of golf and found this. Today's course was hilly and a lot of up and down and I found myself driving a cart like falling leave. Meanwhile, my mind was on Pogo on recent sale's post. :) I find this thing fascinating. That means I can ride board year around.. without being Mt. Hood. Then, negative thoughts come by.. 1. Am I going to be fine to drive this thing after a case of beers? 2. If I buy, are all courses allow me to drive this thing, instead of their cart? 3. What if course set 'Cart Path Only' for the day (usually after heavy rain)? Riding this just on the cart path would be cruel. 4. I can see teenager would use this device to have 5 hours of fun ride on golf course...without a line, no stopping, no lift, heck.. that would be equivalent to 2 full days on slopes. I usually think and plan for next shot while I'm moving. If I'm on GolfBoard, I am sure that will be my last thing to think about. BUT.. if there is a golf course where rent this as a cart, I'll definitely check it out. But I can see this GolfBoard would promote fast pace. found it is sold (pre-order) around $3500.

Keenan Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 I'm adding this to my bucket list: Buy GolfBoard, Headlamp and tickets to Scotland, I must poach St. Andrews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C5 Golfer Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Too much $$$ at $3500 - plus my courses even on just a lite rain day -- those little tires would sink and I 'd constantly getting it unstuck... there is a reason why the power carts have wide tires. Played 100+ rounds so far this year... I think I'd be hard on the batteries.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Cool, but not as cool as this! <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/z5u_2bGPdUY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unicorn Poop Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Eh... big deal. I bought a 54cc gas powered skateboard that'll do 35 MPH for $200. Considering I've done 170+ on the track on a motorcycle, my gas powered skateboard is, without a doubt, the scariest piece of machinery I own. I'm not joking.
