Hey. Actually really interested in this idea. Got pictures of the skis youā€™re planning to use and how to mount everything?

38

are you sure the OSRR will? last time I asked @andrew I was shunned!!!

but the mini will!!!

waaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day we used to use grass-skis for downhilling on skisā€¦ way back before the battery was even inventedā€¦

Iā€™d bet there was/is some science that you could poach there to get of to a good startā€¦

but then I ponderā€¦ why skis? why not snowboard-like??? and here I am back on an eBoardā€¦

I canā€™t help but think that the electric inline skates would be way cooler anyway.

How big are inline skate wheels? The smallest we have easily is 76mm wheels and a 9mm pulley right?
