| I've always wanted to try one of those. They don't look like they would turn too well. But you seem to be ripping it up in those pics. Nice site. |

That is a cool site-
I wonder, are there any known pics of the 8-wheeler Toft made with the pimped out shag carpet?
That I have to see! |

hahaha yea man they can be scary the first (second, third and fourth) time, but if ya think ya wanna learn it just keep at it. Nothing makes me feel more like a rank novice than stepping on the thing, but it's getting better.
Hit the glendale park today and took the eight in the Kidney for the first time. Started off slow but I was getting it at the end, buddy took a couple short clips (thanks jds)..

I would also love to see a pic of the original Toft model with SHAG carpet!

hey,
there's a picture of L.Toft riding his shag carpeted 8
in the Warren Bolster book.
If you look close, you can see the shag just peeking
over the edge of the deck.
