Carson Kressley wouldn't be too happy with the coordination between the noboard's design and the jacket's color.

who's Carson Kressley?

the jacket is just one I grabbed off the rack for the pic

The camp style consultant from 'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.'

any pics of you actually riding the board, Kuma? I know you have 'em

I've got them, I just can't access them. Going to try to get a hard drive today

Here are the pics:

the noboard:



Oyuki riding:



Oyuki tries a shuvit... skaters, u should try this out (oh wait, there are no skaters on this forum)

the guys who made it in time for the pow (ie. NOT AK - he's still in bed...)


I have a go....and it's super fun_!!!!!

wouldve been nice if you did it in the morning before the sun came out.

I love that Jumper Kuma!



Eeeeh... Wrong. Well, I used to, until I got too old heh heh

Nice pics mate, looks like you had the Mountain all to yourselves =)

that last shot is great

i can't wait to try mine out

are you ALL noboarding this year? heck, i might have to give this a go too ha ha. nice photos kuma.

Thanks for the love guys

I have to drop off my noboard at the shop tonight because it's going tv on Friday! There's going to be a little nb segment but it's only being broadcast in Toyama...sorry punks!

Nice pics! i wish i landed the shuvit.
The area we did it at was on a mellow slope right below the gondi lodge. It was not open, but had a packed cat track that went up the slope so we could ride down, turn into the track, and walk back up. Perfect for learning.

It looks nice and easy in these shots, but before we shot these kuma and i went up and tried one of the runs that had been skied out.

That was GNARLY. I fell pretty much every turn, because i couldn't get up on my edge if there was no deep snow. I haven't experienced punter steez like that since i was 13.

Nice pics Kuma - especially the last one! People, look at Oyuki's track - that is smooth!

FT - It may have been nicer for them to do before the sun came out, but then the pics wouldn't have been so nice!

Looking at the shove-it shot.... makes me think the skate-banana or k2 gyrator reverse camber boards would be perfect for noboarding - look at how the contact points are catching!

Dokumon - you better be over 35 to be making lame comments like that.

kuma are you 12? Punks do I have to bring out the fat lady line again?

AK, you still have the jump footy on your camera?

I still don't get it. But that's okay.

does he really wear that facemask?

MAn I so think you guys are 12!

If you're going to get really soulful, do it in bare feet. Just joking.

Anyway, watched a Christian Hosoi documentary last night. That guy definitely didn't need any shoes or trainer wheels or his skateboards!! You can bittorrent it here.
