Had one of these as a kid in San Francisco. Best friend Jimmy Marino got run over by an ambulance by Mission HS

Virtually the same grew up in the city and friend had one of these. Trying to get my kids one, seems like a huge liability.

Well it is the best vehicle to get run over by.

One time somebody dared him to eat a a quarter. If he did they would pay him a dollar. He ate 4 quarters and demanded $4. It lead to a feud between 24th street and Valencia Gardens.

I can actually understand why the SFPD shuts down Delores skateboarder hill bombs these days.

I had one of these for a big grass hill behind our house that led into the park. You’d lean to steer. I can’t imagine riding one down a cement hill f that

My sister kids had one of these in the 90s. We got it for our kids and I gave it to the neighbor with her kids. Just saw them out there tonight with it. It is unbelievably tough. Nice thick deck, great wheels and bearings that still spin great after 25 years. They work best with a nice gentle slope and nothing to hit. No steering, no brakes. Just send it.

Any plastic snow sled will glide down a grass hill with a little spray of wax. We've been doing this for decades!

Super dangerous, I doubt you'll find something like this now.

It can't be too old. There is a website listed for the company on the label. (website no longer exists though).

Has no one ever heard of iceblocking? Buy block of ice, pour glass of water on it and stick a folded up towel or cushion onto it (so it freezes).
thehom3er@reddit
hop on, we don't need breaks where we're going
xtaran@reddit
Nor steering…

Never seen or even heard of these but my first impression is that it's a boogie board for roads.

what a great way to work out your antipathy by designing instruments meant to maim and kill children

Had one of these at our last place, a little gated community with a nice gentle downhill slope from the entrance to the back cul de sac. It was so much fun! I’d sit on it and rip with my toddlers in front of me.
