Do those guys use real snowboards when the jump out of planes? Or is it some sort of thing that looks like a snowboard. Seems to me you'd want some way to release it just before you landed, unless you were landing on snow.

they drop it, i dont do it but i will try soon
looks cool doesnt it

This is on my todo list..

you may have seen it in WM "Journey"

Loic Jean Albert skimming 15 feet off a mountain (http://www.midwestskibums.com/movies/322_big.mov)

I want to see somebody land one.

[Hopscotch]

they use special boards that are not quite as nice as snowboards... their boards are streachy and their feet are in cups. their feet will fall out if they dont keep pressure pulling them apart

[boogieman]

nice movie
they should try to land on skies without the parachute im sure im not they only one who tought about that but i think theres noboddy crazy enough to try it out but im sure it would work if you dont mess up

[Hopscotch]

notice the key words
"but im sure it would work if you dont mess up"

[CarvCanada]

OH MY GOD that clip is insane!

[FTA2R]

i'm pretty sure you have to be a very experienced skydiver to go skyboarding and that suit he is wearing i think is a wingman or bird suit (the local skydive place has it here) , which i believe also requires a lot of experience.
