FAQs
1. Do you still ride for RVL8?
Yes! Meet the rest of the Pro Riders here
www.rvl8skiboards.com/team.html​
2. I am 200+ lbs. Can I still ride?
Yes! Like I stated in the video, KTPs would be a great option. You will want a stiffer board like those and most likely non-release bindings.
3. No poles? Can I use them?
NO POLES! lol but yes you could use them if you really want but that defeats the purpose and freedom of riding Skiboards in the first place. Learn how to push and use your edges and you will never pick up a pair of poles again.
4. Is it like rollerblading?
Similar in the skating movements but other than that it is closer to skiing than anything else.

    Thank you for making this! You really are increasing the exposure of this niche sport. I can even say that I've converted some riders to the sport after watching your content. Keep it up, I'll be watching!

    I got my first pair of Solomon SnowBlades back in 1998 and now I’m getting back into the sport and I’m going to pick up some Rvl8 for next season. I can’t stop watching your videos.

    Thank you for sharing this! Just finished up at Bear Mountain & I was the only one out there with skiboards. I have Line Weapons. I dusted them off after 20+ years & they were perfect after a fresh wax. I had a blast! The non-release bindings can be scary after a fall. I ran into my daughter’s snowboard after she fell, I wiped out & thankfully didn’t hurt my leg too bad. Kept going! I’ll share my GoPro footage soon.

    I have a pair of line skiboards & they are a blast on the mountains. Love to see that there are more skiboarders out there🤙🏼

    Thanks so much for putting together the differences. I've had such fun on my snowblades over the years, and the few times I saw actual ski boards I just yearned for them. Knowing the differences are more than just size has me convinced, I'm going hunting for a new setup!

    I got my first set of @rvl8 Sticky Icky Icky's this year. They work great on the snow/ice we have in North Carolina. Great and informative video as always. Keep it up.

    Thanks for the content, super helpful. I had no desire to ski and being old AF and really didn’t want to try snowboarding again (been 20 years or so). Grabbed a used set of beaters and there was almost no learning curve to a day of enjoyment on groomed slopes. I’ve been ice skating for over 30 years so guessing that’s why it felt so natural. But never would have gotten a pair of boards without this video.

    My GF and I have been wanting to do a winter sport and we both just bought RVL8 boards with the soft boot set up. And I actually bought your stuff and things model. I’ve been park rollerblading for a while so I’m excited to see what I can do on these !

    Great Video and info. Finally getting the chance to get the family out on our skiboards (DLPs, Spliff and Slapdash) at Perisher, Australia 2022. Will do our best to promote the boards and the skiboard lifestyle!!

    Awesome info. I got the k2 fatty ski blades way back in the day. Didn't know about ski boards. Now that I know, definitely upgrading.

    Look forward to seeing more skiboard content. I've been looking at other ways to enjoy the mountains. (Currently, only have a pair of downhill)
