I haven't heard of it going that big but I have heard about it. It would only be a matter of time for added extreme.

I can't even ride a skate board (oh sorry, I guess it's spelled $k8 Bo4Rd) ;) I don't want to even think about rolling down a mountain side on one, even if it is FS.

I've seen them in some bike video. Ride to The Hills, I think. They're basically snowboards on wheels. Look like fun, though I haven't seen the consequences of someone falling on it.
