you guys heard of this?

"We have introduced the latest trend in winter sports for the 2005/2006 ski season. Snowboarding on inflated “air-rockets” is the newest craze in this mountainous state. The sport is more maneuverable than snow tubes, they travel much faster and by shifting body posture airboarders can come to a complete stop within a few feet."
