I think you're supposed to use it while driving for long drives, obviously for passengers probably works by a fan or.. during a hurricane.
$40 seems like a lot imo for an air board though.

I remember Flatface selling them a year ago IIRC. I think Mike used one in one of his vids. They looked pretty sweet but 40 dollars I might make my own.

i bought the first flat shape ever made, kinda boring. just use a deck on a string
I know Kerry didn't like these guys, because they started a kickstarter.com fundraiser to get their company going, but I still think they're awesome and I don't know why any of the small time fingerboardmanufactures hasn't used kickstarter yet? Great opportunity They are wooden finger-surf-boards! I'm diggin' it

Because I don't like taking people's money like that. It feels like a handout.

I didn't like them because they basically stole someone's idea that's been around for ages, act like they're doing something brand new, THEN get money from people for it. I have no problem with kickstarter, infact I quite like crowdfunding and am surprised more fb companies don't do it

Kind of off topic, but I personally don't really like kick-starters. If you're starting a company, get a job first. If you know what you're doing it shouldn't take long to make back what you invested in. Again off topic, but I think I might start a kick starter for next years summer tour. I'm going to be making an enclosed trailer and paying for about $1000 of fuel, so I might see If I can raise $2000 or something like that.
