I think it looks fun and cool, but the video is way too over edited and I don't have the patience. Luna stix are way cooler, though.

For those of you who care, I just landed a ken flip and a turntable... But missed the spike....
... For those of you who know what I am talking about. Im gonna film more tonight and hopefully I can land both!
And its fun because of the same way FINGERBOARDING is fun! It takes patience, but is extreaaaammlyyyy rewarding when you land the trick!

It looks fun, but if any of them are priced like anymore then 5-10 bucks that's ridiculous, it looks like wood and string.

You can say the same thing about fingerboards....
But you actually have to craft the stuff you know?

Fingerboards are hand made most of the time, i would bet that theseare made in a factory by who the hell knows who, I'll pay the extra mile if I know who's handling the product.

Fixed ;D
Looks cool I guess, but not cool enough to have a 41 minute video that makes it out to be some really hardcore extreme sport, aha.
