GremUSA Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 I've never seen this before especially being a rookie, but what is the deal with a mono board it looks like a ski? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7200309775 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluke Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 Actually it's a skwal. Some info can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skwal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Houghton Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 Yah, I 'd say skwal too, I've seen monoskis with the bindings side by side (side by each for the east coasters) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nils Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 its a völkl Monocarver! ;) More info also on www.skwalzone.org, the biggest euro community of skwalers in europe. They also have created a european skwal association which is pretty active organizing contests, promotions etc... Skwal is fun! But you need to be focus and sharp on it all the time.. its also very demanding physically to have fun and carve low, but the grip is very impressive!

Skwalleur Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 I ride the Monocarver Skwal! It's the stiffest smoothest carve ride ever. The only bad thing about it it that I had to drill an extra hole in the TD Skwal base plate to be able to use the binding - it doesn't have standard 4x4 inserts. /Teddo LeeW -> Monoski huh? No WAY!

Jon Dahl Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 I've been eyeing it up, but the wifey may kill me if I add one MORE to the quiver, after I get a swallowtail!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skwalleur Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 I've been riding the first Skwal - the Lacroix, and worked my way up through the Thias Line of boards, and I can comfortably say - it is the BOMB! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
